Welcome to the Top of the Birds competition. The rules are simple: list your top ten bird-related songs of all time, and the best playlist wins. It could be a song from a band (Live and Let Die, Wings), it could have a bird in the title (Three Little Birds, Marley) or it could reference birds (Fall on Me, REM – environmental impact).
Simply write the list in the comments section below, along with your name and email address (will not be displayed publicly!) to be in with a chance of winning a 25kg bag of sunflower heart chips worth £25.99. The competition will end on the 9th September at midnight.
Good luck!
