Gibraltar Bird Report 2020

Welcome to the 2020 issue of the Gibraltar Bird Report.

This is the third Report that is being published solely on-line. This edition and its predecessors are freely available to all visitors to the Gibraltar Ornithological and Natural History Society (GONHS) website. The intention is that the Report will be accessible to a wider readership than before, and at much lower cost to the Society, printing and postage costs now being prohibitive.

The report can be downloaded at  https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzYiYWBFgJW8VDN2bjFXYlBTb2s?resourcekey=0-OWichNVwecoWuDXok7VYcA
