This is the reincarnated page of BBRC - where you can see recent acceptances and other related committee news. It has replaced our original twitter feed which is no longer in use.
This is likely to be our last post on Twitter. We'll remain an active account to stop others using the name, and in the hope Twitter becomes Twitter again, and not X. Please find us in the rapidly growing birding community over on the blue butterfly site.
We have updated our missing records file again, please do have a look to see if you can help us by submitting outstanding rarities from 2024 (and a few notables from 2023). We aim to put out an updated version of this every 2-3 weeks until report time. https://t.co/OVAYQM9lcH
#Migfest24 Congratulations to @shetlandnature who wins this years Carl Zeiss award for his description of a Pacific Diver on Shetland, before the BB/RSPB talk at Migfest
We have uploaded an updated version of our submission form to the website at https://t.co/82srDdH7Ii
It has a couple of new bits to fill in that will help us, mainly asking for details if it is a returning bird or considered 'same as' another sighting. Thanks.
@amythebirder peanut butter (optionally and jam) sandwich... I take them on bike rides. Also Spanish Tortilla - a mighty fat omelette with onion and potato...... again, can wrap a segment up for fieldwork or graze when home
@BBS_birds@nationaltrust This was the square in the pilot pre-BBS, doing transect routes and point counts..... It has changed so much and needs a new surveyor now
A new WiP file has been added to the website.

Please send any corrections directly to https://t.co/rN2V4mEsAa, not via Twitter!
Note that there are currently a further 18 Ross's Geese in circulation not on this list.
The December issue of British Birds is now out and includes the @__BBRC review of records of ‘Little Shearwaters’ in Britain, White-chinned Petrel in Orkney, behaviour of Mandarin Ducks, BB eye on SPAs, notes, book reviews, recent reports and more! ➡️https://t.co/ZarwOkwy99
Given current events at Flamborough, its worth reiterating a call for post-1990 Red-headed Bunting submissions that we first published in BB in May 2022. Thanks.
The most recent BBRC report – rare birds in Great Britain in 2022 – is now available to view online for British Birds subscribers. Print copies of October’s delayed issue should be dropping onto doormats by early next week.
