The Lundy Bird Observatory accreditation received in February 2023, was subject to a three year probationary period, with a requirement to provide an operational status update at the Bird Observatories Council AGM each year. On 1 February 2025, the Warden, Joe Parker, the ringing group leader, Chris Dee, and two of last years long-term volunteers; Lucy Pécasse and Thomas Weston attended the meeting at the BTO headquarters in Thetford. Joe's presentation explained how we are meeting the requirements for being recognised as a bird observatory and that the operational aspects were working smoothly. This was well received and there were no questions, so we are pleased to report a successful second probationary year and that we are still on course for full membership in 2026.
