RSPB Volunteer and Farmer Alliance

December 05, 2011

This year we took part in the RSPB Volunteer and Farmer Alliance, welcoming RSPB volunteers to the farm to carry out surveys of the birds that are breeding here at Treberfedd. This was a great opportunity for us to find out more about the various species that are making their home at the farm, and we were really excited to learn that there were 32 species observed here, and of those there were three found here that have "red status", which means that they are of high conservation concern (Bullfinch, Linnet and Willow warbler). A copy of full species list found here at the farm this year can be downloaded here
