We’ve invited our staff internationally to join in the Global Birding Weekend wherever they are: some will be at home and others will be out racing, but it’s all about enjoying the magic of birds_

On October 17th and 18th we will be taking part to celebrate our passion for birds and birding while helping BirdLife International Stop Illegal Bird Trade. Please support us as we join in the fun, help set two new world records and raise money for BirdLife. By contributing to our team's fundraising you will be helping to save some of the world's most threatened birds from extinction too.
