Rare Breeding Birds Panel
United Kingdom
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 28 เม.ย. 2021
The Rare Breeding Birds Panel (RBBP) was established in 1972 to encourage and support the recording and reporting of rare breeding birds in the UK. We collate breeding data on all species with fewer than 2,000 breeding pairs in the UK in order to report annually on their numbers, trends and distribution, and maintain a secure archive to support conservation and research for these species. We also collate data on rare non-native breeding species. Find out more at www.rbbp.org.uk

May is peak breeding season! Everywhere you go birdwatching there will be birds breeding - singing, displaying, incubating eggs, feeding young - amongst them a wide range of rare species. You can help the Rare Breeding Birds Panel by finding, recording and reporting these birds - here's some tips.

Early spring is by far the best time to find new Goshawk territories, or confirm continued occupation of existing ones. In this short video Panel Secretary Mark Eaton gives some encouragement and hints as to where, when and how to look. The UK Goshawk population is increasing and spreading rapidly, so there's a good chance of finding new pairs if you get out looking - but remember to watch from...

Holiday birdwatching - how you can help the RBBP!
I never seen one but I heard them in the field at the back of my mother's house when I was growing up in the fifties in dublin they just remind me of my childhood
Have you seen or know that do LSW’s exist on Whitmoor Common, Worplesdon? I might have seen one but not sure. It looks a bit scrawny and more mottled black/white
yesterday in upton upon severn a male one hit our window knocked out but next day he wasnt there got some lovley photos of him close up and i stroked when he came round kept him warm this morning he flew off i feel very honoured to be close up to this bird beautifull.
Nice close video. Enjoyed it. 👌👌
You shouldn’t be going anywhere near Goshawk territories without a licence
Should I wear a protective helmet? They can get pretty aggressive when young are in the nest.
I,m a amateur birder,and I find for me their call is the best way of identifying them, its like a weak kestrel sound👍 Elated when I heard my first, but never saw it 😞 Hampole wood south Yorkshire 👍
Great videos I've shared both of my Surrey Birding FB group. Well done, thanks.
There are certainly more challenges than joys in my experience. Do these birds actually exist?
Very informative! Thank you. We have them coming back to nest on our terrain, each year, as well, in the middle of France (Allier, Auvergne). We've been following them for several years, now. Here is one of the videos I made of them: th-cam.com/video/sdZzh9XtN2A/w-d-xo.html (mating!). Last summer, they raised two chicks (always on the same nest). I would love for this nest site to be part of a research/monitoring/ringing program.
Brilliant! Thanks for info
Loving the channel
Had a LSW in the garden for the first time today at 10.40 for round 15 mins, sifting out its preferred food from seed mix in large feeder. Sitting in. Dull head colouring so assume this is a juvenile. Will put out more food this evening. I would like to know more about this organisation and how I could help?
You just got to find an area of woodland that has a good wide view & sit watching for hours for a brief glimpse.
Nice and beautiful video. Thanks for sharing. Big Like 4
I. Was camping at a site directly next door to Leighton moss rspb in silver Dale Lancashire a year ago and I saw over the space of the first two days when I got there what was either a marsh or willow tit actually about four flitting around but admittedly I don't know for sure .
They don't always nest in pine trees, they use deciduous as well. Suitable hunting area is more important. There is an article about them in Bird Watching magazine.
I'm still not able to say that I have seen a goshawk although I know that I can go to keilder and forest of Dean and new forest and other known hot spots however I am desperately waiting to see them in my own patch of Lancashire as I know that they have been seen and have nested in various areas....I particularly want to see them in the Blackburn and Darwen area where there is huge conifer plantations and I have spoken with some lucky people who have seen them there......I know that they are around the Gisburn forest area and Bowland....
Are there a lot of them in Scotland
Yes probably, definitely a lot in Ireland because no Tawny Owls and apparently they don't always get on.
@Michael Mac yes I heard that well read it a few years ago and I was very surprised about the absence of the tawny in Ireland.....don't suppose you have any information regarding the presence of the long eared owl's in Lancashire?... I have watched short eared numerous times...
@@jamiegrieve5875 I don't know, there is an article about them in March edition of - Bird Watching Magazine. I don't know if they share habitat with Short-eared Owls? Which are moorland birds, so farm land with small pine woods and hedges may have them? Perhaps on the coast?
@@jamiegrieve5875 at a guess Leighton Moss area or Formby has pine forests.
Nice and beautiful video. Thanks for sharing.
I thought long eared were more common in the south of Britain. I live in Lancashire and i have watched the short eared on many occasions but I have only caught a glimpse of long eared
I think Long-eared owls like woods in farm land as opposed to moorland, like the Short-eared...
