"Latest
Bird Trends in Cavan: The Bird Atlas Results"
A
Presentation by Brian Caffrey, Birdwatch Ireland’s Atlas co-ordinator will take
place on Wednesday
10 October at 8pm in Kilmore Church of Ireland Hall,
Crossdoney Road, Cavan. (Hall is situated off the Cavan - Crossdoney road,signposted to the right from Cavan direction.)
The bird atlas was a joint project of Birdwatch Ireland, the British
Trust of Ornithology and the Scottish Ornithologists Club. Survey work was
carried out between 2007 – 2011 and results of this project will play a major
part in setting the priorities for bird conservation for the next 20 years.
Here in Cavan many branch members took part
in survey work over the four year period of the project and it will be of
interest to all to hear about what changes have taken place in Cavan
since the last atlas was published 20 years ago.
We would like to encourage any new members or
beginners to come along to this event to learn about the birds of Cavan, meet
with the local group members and to hear about upcoming outdoor events that you
might like to join.
