CSP News
We have a new volunteer working for TBP and CSP in Crieff
George Winter, from Derbyshire, is a graduate in Environment & Sustainability and is currently working on his MSc in Environmental Management at the University of Stirling. However, before he returns to his studies in September he has been helping us with the Crieff swift boxes deployment and, thanks to his endeavours, we should get a few more boxes placed this season, news of which will appear here or in the apodiblog. Look out for George in Crieff and be sure to stop him and give him any information you have about swift activity you have seen, especially nest sites which we may not have recorded yet.
Fighting for the birds
This probably breaches copyright but I think this is too important not to circulate as widely as possible.

Please send all swift data for Crieff, Comrie, Muthill and immediate environs to the Crieff Swift Project. If you only send the information to Tayside Biodiversity Partnership it will not be enough information and it will not come to us in a usable format. However, all information sent to us we will pass to TBP when we have collated it.
We are still looking for spotters in Crieff who are willing to send in reports. Please get in touch and we will let you know what we need you to look for. Spotters can adopt the swifts seen in their street area or they can provide data for a larger part of town; everything is welcome.
