On Sat 22nd February there will be a one day conference at the University of Exeter’s Penryn campus near Falmouth. The programme includes talks from local speakers, staff from the BTO and from other conservation organisations and the event represents an excellent opportunity to meet other birdwatchers. I’ll be giving a presentation on the Great Black backed Gull project on Looe Island. Tickets for the conference are £20 per person (£10 student rate) and include tea/coffee and a buffet lunch.
