GOS is a charity. Donations are welcome and it is only £12 to join (for which you get the annual bird report, email updates concerning events and an invitation to attend all of our walks / field trips free of charge). Walks are £5 for non-members. We welcome members and non-members alike to the free online talks. For in-person talks there is a nominal fee of £1 on the door to help cover room hire.
We encourage all to join the society and contribute to the bird recording and conservation initiatives GOS promotes.
The Role of BTO Data in Understanding and Conserving Gower’s Birds
21 February 2025 @ 19:15 - 21:00
Gethin Jenkins-Jones, Development and Engagement Co-ordinator at BTO Cymru, will talk to us about how data collected as a result of BTO’s flagship Wetland Bird Survey, Breeding Bird Survey and ringing initiatives have assisted us in understanding the conservation value of our recording area, and the data we need to collect in order to effectively conserve our bird populations going forward.
We will meet again in the rooms at St Paul’s Church, off De La Beche Road, Sketty. There is ample parking. It is £1 on the door to cover room hire.
