Declining and lost birds
Very sadly, there are a number of bird species that seem to have
declined enormously over the last few
years.
As the county bird recorder, I need to ensure that any records of
those declining species are verified, only to ensure that any decline is
accurately reported
These species include marsh tit (only three records in 2023) along
with lesser spotted woodpecker (sadly, almost gone from Ceredigion), and before
verifying the record I must ask for a description
