Graham Appleton will talk to us about the BTO New Bird Atlas of Britain and Ireland.    Fieldwork began in November 2007 and will run for 4 winters and 4 breeding seasons.   This is obviously an enormous undertaking and will require all hands on deck.   Graham will cover previous atlases, why we need a new one, and how people can get involved.

Roy Croucher will talk to us about “Managing Britain’s Habitats”.    Roy was involved with the RSPB until 1982   He then worked on wildlife projects in Essex before being appointed Senior countryside Ranger by Sandwell MBC in the West Midlands.  Since 2002 he has been Director of Northern France Wildlife Tours Ltd and has led birdwatching groups on tours of Britain, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.  His talk will be based on his 25 years experience in wildlife management and what can be achieved in the various habitats of lowland Britain using traditional methods and modern scientific techniques.
