Tomorrow my team, the Airey Birders, will be taking part in the Michael Clegg Memorial Bird Race, a day earlier than planned due to the terrible weather on Sunday. Our patch is the Aire Valley at St Aidans and surrounding area. The aim is to raise money for a nominated good cause each year. This time we’re racing to raise money to help Spurn Bird Observatory Trust to create some fantastic habitat for migrating birds.
We’ll be counting birds from before dawn until after dusk, on foot, and hopefully matching or beating last years result. Many more teams will be taking part across Yorkshire. Please use the link below to donate

This is terrible news! I couldn’t get through a summer without hearing the amazing song of a blackbird. If you have a garden, you might like to help the BTO with their very important survey. If this virus is marching northwards towards Yorkshire, we may start to see the drastic effects very soon.
