If you live in London and enjoy a spot of bird watching, there's no need to venture out of the city to take part in the hobby.

The Independent suggested residents and visitors to the English capital who want to spend an enjoyable – and cheap – summer afternoon looking out for wildlife, might want to take a trip to the south bank.

From July until September, volunteers from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds will be on hand next to the Millennium Bridge by the Tate Modern, the publication explained.

Richard Bashford from the organisation told the newspaper that bird enthusiasts will be around to ask members of the public if they would like to see falcons.

"[We can] then give them binoculars and information and point them to where they're perched on top of the Tate Modern chimney, post breeding," he remarked.

If you want to explore more hidden secrets in London, hopping on your bike to take a cycling tour might be one way to get around.
