On this popular TV program they asked for the the RSPB's top 25 garden birds. Guess which two were NOT chosen by the selected audience, i.e scored zero points.
No prizes , especially for those using search engines

I saw the programme, so I won't give the answer. But what astounded me was the general ignorance of the participants. They seemed totally unable to name any common garden birds, apart from one who said Chaffinch. (However when it comes to questions about popular music I would fail every time  ) |

I guess not everyone knows their birds, but they might be good at something else

OK, the two birds scoring zero points were.........
Greater Spotted Woodpecker
Long-tailed Tit
I do get both in my garden but not regularly.
