Satellite-tagged Carmarthenshire Woodcock heads for Russia PDF Print E-mail

A first winter female woodcock satellite-tagged on the edge of the   Crychan Forest on 26th Feb as part of a research project by the Game and   Wildlife Conservation Trust, assisted by the Woodcock Network, has commenced   her spring migration back to her breeding grounds in Russia? Since christened   Rebecca, her progress can be followed online and there is an opportunity to   sponsor her in order to fund future research.

Pictures of the bird when caught can be seen at http://midwalesringers.blogspot.com   and her migration can be followed at http://www.woodcockwatch.com/

The club also organises meetings for its members which include field trips and talks on wildlife topics. Club meetings are an excellent opportunity to meet other birders and to visit places of ornithological interest in enjoyable company. We have over 100 members.

The club welcomes new members. Membership is available to anyone with an interest in the wildlife of Carmarthenshire. Birds don’t have to be your only, or even your principal, interest.
