Saltholme's Bird Records?

Love visiting Saltholme at any time of the year as you are normally guaranteed a wonderful variety of birds during a day's visit. Have often wondered about the kind of record keeping that occurs. I know that surveys are carried out but are there any daily records maintained by the reserve? And if so, are these records accessible?
  • Monthly we carry out the wetlands bird survey (WeBs) the results of which we then submit to the BTO. Who then in turn publish their own report.

    Daily we do record reserve sightings daily for our own records but as this produces a working document we don't publish it.

    In the visitor centre we do have a daily sightings log this provides very anecdotal results but you are more than welcome to have a look through the sightings books.
