2019 Bird Records
If anyone has any bird records they haven't already sent to the blog team, or BOC, or entered into Birdtrack or eBird, can they please send them to avonbirds@hotmail.co.uk before the end of January so they may be included in the 2019 Avon Bird Report. Ideally records should be on a spreadsheet, and show at least the species, the number of individuals, the date seen (dd/mm/yyyy) and the site.
