| Welcome to the Lundy Birds
website. |
| |
| Lying astride the mouth of the
Bristol Channel, Lundy has long proved to be a magnet for migrating
birds, with a long list of major rarities to its name, and is
nationally important for its breeding seabirds. |
| |
| The island is perhaps best known
by birdwatchers for its rare vagrants, however, news of
their arrival is often slow to reach the mainland and relies
on the relatively few visiting birders reporting their sightings
to bird information lines. The annual bird report published
by the Lundy Field Society provides an overview and permanent
record, but is not a news service as such. This
website has been developed with the aim of filling that gap,
and to provide a convenient and easily accessible means of sharing
recent sightings of birds on Lundy. |
| |
| The success of this
voluntary, not-for-profit venture will depend on birdwatchers
sending in reports, and photographs using the Submit sightings
button below. I look forward to hearing from you. |
