Swift project - Clevedon
Helen Wood is interested in setting up a Swift group in Clevedon. Her ideas for the group are firstly to get many more boxes up around Clevedon, collate data on sightings and nest occupation, run Swift walks to help survey, and get the community more interested in Swifts.
If you are interested in getting involved, please contact Helen via Clevedonswifts@gmail.com.
