Bird dietary analysis training and volunteer session

Would you like to assist with our bird dietary research and learn some new skills? We will be running two separate bird dietary analysis sessions this month, where we will identify and measure fish bones from cormorant and goosander stomachs.

These free training sessions will be on Monday 16 February and Wednesday 25 February 2026 from 10:00 to 16:00 at the Tweed Foundation office in Drygrange. No previous experience is necessary.

To register email our volunteer coordinator, Erica, at ZWNoYXBtYW4gfCB0d2VlZGZvdW5kYXRpb24gISBvcmcgISB1aw==, and let us know what date you would like to attend.

We are also looking for volunteers to help with bird dissections over the next two Fridays throughout February (13 & 20).
