As part of our Dreel Burn catchment initiative, we have been asked by project partner, Credit Nature, to help gather some data on birds to fill gaps in existing data. Volunteers of all ages and with any level of bird knowledge can help us to build bigger and better data on the birdlife in the Dreel Burn catchment.
We are collaborating with Fife Coast & Countryside Trust and Credit Nature to do this via a BioBlitz event on the Balcaskie Estate. The activity will start at 9am on Thursday 17th October, with small groups of 2-4 volunteers walking prescribed areas of the estate and recording the birds seen in that area. Each walk should take no more than 3 hours to complete, and volunteers are invited to gather at Balcaskie House afterwards for some warming soup and home baking.
We are seeking volunteers to help gather the data; volunteers could be experienced bird watchers or less experienced but enthusiastic and keen to learn.
If you are interested in joining this activity as a volunteer you can sign up here or if you have any questions please email Cristin.Lambert@fifecountryside.co.uk at Fife Coast & Countryside Trust.
