A friend at work yesterday asked me that question. I thought he meant how many species, so I happily talked to him about UK records, regular visitors etc. But no, he meant How many individual birds!
And I realised I have no idea!!
Now I don't mean domestic fowl for which there seem to be figures online.
As there are apparently 65 million people in the UK... I estimate about 200 birds to every person when you include migrants and visitors, but is that a bad guess?
I believe there are figures of 3 million breeding woodpigeons?
Can anyone help with an answer?
