Online Recording
Those of you in the county with a keen interest in birds will already know that in addition to the BTO Atlas there is the very successful online recording facility at http://www.universalquestions.com/nature
The recording system has now been extended to embrace the following categories:
Butterflies
Dragonflies and damselflies
Mammals
Orchids
Richard Beal's software provides a straightforward but nevertheless sophisticated way of getting your sightings from your desktop to the county recorders and by using the system you can make a valuable contribution to the GNS ongoing recording effort. After a simple registration procedure you can start recording straightaway and you can return to the web site at any time by simply logging in.

The Society is pleased to announce that small grants are available to help finance projects concerned with biological recording, education, public awareness and environmental or nature conservation within the county.
