A total of 41,630 people across Scotland have taken part in this year’s bird survey organised by the RSPB.
Despite taking place on the same weekend as Storm Eowyn an impressive 748,392 birds were spotted at the annual Big Garden Birdwatch.
A welcome sight when looking out the kitchen window, these are the birds that add life and colour to our outdoor spaces.
Many of us like to help out our feathered friends - particularly over the winter months - by supplying food in feeders and on bird tables, and shelter in the form of bird boxes.
In return they help to keep plant-destroying caterpillars and aphids in check.
Here are the 13 most common avian garden visitors in Scotland - according to the recently-released figures.
5. Blue Tit
The instantly-recognisable blue tit completes the top five but has had a difficult time of late, appearing in second spot just a few years ago. Males and females are virtually identical, although males have a slightly brighter blue colour on the head, wing and tail than the females. | Canva/Getty Images
6. Wood Pigeon
The success of the wood pigeon (simply referred to as pigeons by most people - but different from feral pigeons, more of which later) hinges on the fact that they are tremendously adaptable birds. Even if you can't see them, you'll hear their unique cooing call of "oooh, oooh, ooh, ooooh, ooh". | Canva/Getty Images
7. Goldfinch
The goldfinch has been one of the big success stories of the last 100 years, after they almost went extincts due to the Victorians catching them to keep as pets. They are now commonly seen in gardens, particularly if they contain thistles - the bird's favourite foodstuff. Their culinary tastes led to their former name of the thistle finch. | Canva/Getty Images
8. Robin
One of Scotland's most popular birds, the festive robin is easily identified by its red breast. Robins are very territorial so you'll usually only see more than one at the same time when they're mating. | Canva/Getty Images
