As editor on the Avon Bird Report I am asking for photos for the next edition. I would welcome any bird shots taken in Avon in 2020 for possible publication in the next Report. In the first instance low resolution versions are OK. Please send to the following e-mail account: blacktgodwit@gmail.com I look forward to seeing your photos.
