What's in this Issue?
Britain’s next breeding bird
With species’ distributions changing all the time, birders like to speculate on which ones might successfully colonise. Josh Jones looks to the future to predict which birds might soon be nesting in the UK.
The lark descending
A culture shift in UK farming is needed to restore the fortunes of one of our iconic songsters, writes Tim Harris.
Field ID notes: spring overshoots
Spring migration is in full swing by April, bringing with it the possibility of scarce overshoots. Matt Eade provides all the information you need to target, find and identify such species.
Why do we feed our garden birds?
New research has shown that feeding birds might not be quite the benefit for wildlife we think it is. Two of the paper’s authors, Jack Shutt and Alexander Lees, explain why this might be the case.
Save land, save species
As World Land Trust pushes to save millions of hectares over the next few years, Birdwatch readers have a chance to play a part by becoming supporters.
