SCHOOL children across the Keighley district are being urged by the RSPB to take part in a major wildlife survey.
The charity is staging its annual Big Schools' Birdwatch between now and February 13.
Pupils and their teachers are asked to make a note of birds visiting the school grounds in a one-hour period.
Last year, more than 70,000 people took part and the survey revealed the blackbird as the most seen bird.
Siobhan McGuigan, for the RSPB, said: "Taking part in the birdwatch is a fantastic excuse to stare out of the classroom window and discover much more about the wildlife which visits your playground."
Specially-designed resources have been produced for participants.
