April brings with it a wide range of new breeding species to be found and reported … here’s just a few suggestions of rare breeding birds to look for over the coming weeks.
The work of county bird recorders in collating records is vital for the RBBP - about 2/3 of our data comes through their submissions. In a NEW BLOG Shaun Robson @NarwhalSh describes his work as rare breeding bird recorder for @DorsetBirdClub tinyurl.com/RBBPDorset
On the edge of the increasing Welsh & Cotswolds populations, #Worcs has been a little slow to keep up the pace as seen in other areas. But the increase in Red Kite records in the last five years has been dramatic. A visualisation using the power of @BirdTrack data #WorcsBirds

Redpoll caught by us at Stourport, Worcestershire on 01/02/2024, was originally ringed 314km away in Whauphill, Dumfries and Galloway on 22/08/2023.
It’s also important to think carefully before sharing sightings (e.g. on social media) of rare breeding birds in the breeding season - could this lead to disturbance, or worse? Read the RBBP guidance here tinyurl.com/RBBPsound. If in doubt, don’t!
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]
Counting small birds in large flocks is always difficult. Photography used to great effect here by Phil to secure an accurate count of Linnet.

With repeated and prolonged flooding this winter & in recent years, the Longdon Marsh basin has proved repeatedly how important this site is, and likely to be increasingly so in the future as 'extreme' flooding events become the norm.

Goshawks continue to increase in #Worcestershire and there is now the possibility of finding them across the county. Some great advice from RBBP here.

The first singing Yellowhammer on Dropping Well Farm and the wintering Reed Bunting still present. 24/02/24. @WorcsWT @BTO_Worcs @Worcs_bird @WestMidBirdClub
BTO Shropshire and SOS are hosting a joint workshop with special guests. Aimed at young people in Shropshire and the West Midlands who are considering a career in conservation. @_BTO @BTO_Shropshire @sosbirding For more information: bto.org/community/even…
The BirdTrack app has been updated today. See where and when you've noted each species on your list. Select any species from the stats page to go further into your records. Find out which months are the best for a specific species. 1/2
It might not feel like it right now, but spring is on the way. It’s already a great time of year to be looking for Golden Eagles, Goshawks, Woodlarks, Long-eared Owls and Lesser Spotted Woodpeckers as they establish breeding territories. More info at rbbp.org.uk/2023/02/13/wha…
A good reminder of Lesser Spotted Woodpecker drumming, time to get out into the woods to find them again.
