Which birds will make the headlines in Bird Atlas 2007-11?

It is now over 15 years since we finished the fieldwork for the last breeding atlas and over 20 years since the last winter atlas. In the intervening period much has happened to Britain and Ireland’s habitats and climate but how have our birds been affected? We need your help - out in the field counting birds to turn the question marks into dots - and the financial support necessary to organise the work, analyse the results and produce the final atlas.
