New stuff
New SBSG Facebook page launched New Committee Member and experienced blogger Mark Reeder has created a Facebook page; it will act as a entry point for the website and we hope it will engage younger birders and encourage them to explore the site. FINAL CALL FOR 2011 RECORDS Our database is the lifeblood of the SBSG, so please help to develop it by submitting all outstanding records as soon as possible. Deadline is May 31st. Atlas Species Sponsorship: The Final Chapter A concluding message from Pete Brown and a chance to solve a mystery....... Dawn Chorus Walk Philip Ridsdale will lead a walk around Heeley City Farm on May 17th from 06:00 to 08:00. More... Records of declining species Have the good news stories about certain species distracted us from the worrying decline in others?
Paul Leonard fears so. More... Wildlife Trust for Sheffield & Rotherham More local events information can be found here, or check with www.wildsheffield.com at any time. SK58 Birders - Indoor Meetings For details of forthcoming meetings of this small but energetic group, please click here Free membership for under 21s SBSG membership has grown over the last few years, but we'd like it to grow more, particularly by giving younger people the chance to share our pasion for birds and birding. So to encourage this we are launching free membership for those 21 or under. It is envisaged that most applicants will be 16+, though younger enthusiasts will be welcomed provided they are accompanied to indoor events and field trips by a parent or guardian.
