Do you live in or near Birmingham and are able to help with street-level surveys of urban nesting gulls in May or June? @_BTO are looking for volunteers to make single visits to 1-km squares and count the adult gulls they see. Please contact stevedaviesbtorep@hotmail.co.uk Thanks

1/4 #WSTC4 #ConsBio1 – What is #SeabirdsCount? It is the 4th breeding seabird census of its kind. Like its 3 predecessors; its aim is to survey all known #seabird colonies in Britain & Ireland. Meaning over 10,000 sites will be visited between the 2015 & 2019 breeding seasons!
