Happy New Year Everyone! A big thank you to everyone who has been submitting bird records to various sources throughout 2025. Looking at BirdTrack data entered currently (easiest source for me to check quickly), there has been "231 species from 91559 records, 2416 complete lists, 3006 places". Note that this includes various hybrids and unknown gull/waders etc as different species. For the 2025 Bird Report, we will start downloading data from the various sources (BirdTrack, eBird, iRecord/iNaturalist) from the 31st January 2026, so please enter your remaining data before then if you'd like them to be considered for the bird report. Any data submitted after download is still important and we'd encourage any data (whether 2025 or older) to be entered. If you have any questions with regards data, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us via our recorder email found here: https://www.the-soc.org.uk/pages/local-recorders-network-area/dumfries-and-galloway ...
