Breeding Bird Survey Training Days

Breeding Bird Survey

The 2014 series of BBS (Breeding Bird Survey) training days starts soon. This BTO/JNCC/RSPB survey is a national volunteer project aimed at keeping track of changes in the breeding populations of widespread bird species in the UK. The survey is designed to be a simple and enjoyable birdwatching exercise, while also providing critically important data on Northern Ireland’s birds. Our one day course (run on five occasions this year) will cover BBS rationale, field methodology and data submission. There is more detail about BBS online at: www.bto.org/volunteer-surveys/bbs If you are interested in taking part please let me know by return email which of the following dates and locations is best for you:
