Hi all,
I received this email from BTO today. There are 3 sites in Mont, one near Welshpool, one near Foel and one at Clywedog (which is the key site they want covered). There are a few just over the border into Ceredigion, Gwynedd and Shropshire too. Please get in touch with the email below if you are interested.
"You may be aware that the British Trust for Ornithology are relaunching the Winter Gull Roost Survey after a gap of 20 years. We are looking for volunteers that enjoy counting gulls at roost and that are interested in collecting wintering gull data. This information will aid us in vital monitoring efforts to assess population changes and provide data for the designated of protected wintering sites.
The survey will involve visits to key gull roosts and random
samples across inland and coastal sites in January. Supplementary count data at
key roost sites in Autumn is also encouraged to monitor seasonal differences in
gull numbers.
Here is a link to the Vacant Site Map where
you can find available sites in your area.
For more information and to sign up for the survey please
visit www.bto.org/wings.
If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact wings@bto.org."
