Fantastic news from Lundy today, officially now the location of a Bird Observatory. Congratulations to all who worked hard to put this application together.
Great news. Lundy has been officially reacredited as a Bird Observatory! We hope this prestigious title will attract more birders (and birds?) to the island.

It is #BigGardenBirdwatch weekend! Be sure to take part in this incredible piece of citizen science. You never know what you might see? And even if you don't see as much as expected, or maybe nothing at all, that is still important data.
Have you done your #BigGardenBirdWatch count today? We would love to see what you spotted! . Don't forget to submit your results. #Winterwatch @BBCSpringwatch . 📷 @whistling_joe
