The Birds of Lundy

The Lundy Bird Observatory website provides easily accessible updates to the species accounts in The Birds of Lundy published in 2007. These updates include any information that adds significantly to our knowledge of the island’s commoner birds, as well as details of rare and unusual species recorded since 2007. A fully revised 2nd edition of the book is in preparation.

The species accounts, including ringing controls & recoveries, have been updated to the end of 2023, with some additional highlights also added for 2024. The pages summarising Ringing and Breeding have also been updated to the end of 2023.
