The Royal Society of Biology is working in partnership with the Field Studies Council to bring you the Signs of Spring survey 2025.

Signs of Spring is a survey asking members of the public to record ten signs of Spring across the UK.

We'd love you to get involved by looking out for any of the ten indicator species or events shown below, and when you see one, record it using our short survey.

Anytime you are out in your local area, we would like you to lookout for the following Signs of Spring, record where and when you saw the sign of spring as well as the weather at the time. We want to capture early and late signs of spring, so the survey is open until 18th June 2025.

Bluebells	Bumblebees	Butterflies	Daffodils	Dragonflies/damselflies
Frogspawn	Hazel catkins	Ladybirds	Lawn first cut	Snowdrops

When looking for signs of spring and completing the survey, please ensure you stay safe and are dressed appropriately for the weather.

Results of the observations recorded using the survey will be available on a live map and chart below.

We will be collecting data on the same 10 indicator species and events as in 2024. We hope by expanding the number of categories and collecting additional data on the time and weather for each sighting, over time, we can track changes to the signs of spring and make observations about the potential impacts of changes in the environment.

You can read about the 2024 results here.
