The most common birds this year were finches, barnacle geese, and common starlings.
On European Bird Watching Day, BirdLife International's 41 national partners across Europe and Central Asia invited people to more than 1,800 various events to watch bird migrations and spot over seven million birds on their way to the south to spend the winter.
"The first numbers after the event are incredible as they testify to the best results since 2013, as reported by SOS/BirdLife Slovakia, this year's EuroBirdwatch coordinator," Biom said.
