A Bird in the Hand – Bird Ringing
Demonstration
On Sunday 15 June from 10am –
3pm, come and see bird ringing taking place with the British
Trust for Ornithology and Kew staff at the Himalayan Glade.
The dramatic decline of farmland birds in recent years has
led to new concerns about the future of woodland birds. This
year will see the start of the Loder Valley Bird Monitoring
Scheme, a long-term project to help provide a health check
for bird populations. Dedicated volunteers will contribute
to a global network of conservationists monitoring populations
of both migrating and native birds and providing valuable
input into conservation initiatives.
