Bird Census News 35/1–2

In this issue, you can read about the the Covid-pandemic and how the lockdown affected bird behaviour but also the behaviour of monitoring people, which can have consequences to efficiency of the schemes.

The two other articles are dealing with the importance of a touristic island in Iceland to bird conservation, and with information on the distribution of birds in a poorly known area in Western Siberia.

Finally, the BCN also introduces an EBCC board member – Jean-Yves Paquet, the Communications Officer.
