So it’s the time of year for finding, recording and enjoying rare breeding birds, but we must remember to put their welfare first! Here’s some advice from RBBP Secretary @Mark_A_Eaton, and there’s a blog here tinyurl.com/RBBPsafe [1/2]

If the name of Ukrainian Snake Island sounds familiar to my zoologist friends, it's either because it was one of the last two monk seal survival sites in the Black Sea, or because there was a bird banding station there, manned by an international team every spring and fall. (1/2)

Compelling case for the value of submitting our biological records, and if you live in or visit Norfolk, a taxon-specific explanation of how to do it. Absolutely brilliant thread.

Great illustration of how a dog on a lead would result in far less disturbance to wildlife. One study indicated that dog walking in woodland leads to a 35% reduction in bird diversity and 41% reduction in abundance royalsocietypublishing.org/d…
