About the Club
The Peterborough Bird Club (PBC) was formed in September 1998, by a small group of birdwatchers, whose principle interest was in field work; the Greater Peterborough Ornithological Group. The aim of the PBC is to bring together all those with an interest in birds in the Peterborough area and to increase their knowledge and enjoyment of birds and other wildlife. We also aim to raise awareness of birds among the local people and to promote their conservation. Club Activities Outdoor Meetings are held most months, with a healthy mix of visits to both local sites and reserves further a field. Our winter indoor programme runs from September to April on the last Tuesday of the month in-between. It starts at 7.30pm at The Burghley Square Club. As well as organising both indoor and outdoor meetings, we also hold special events such as ‘Bird Fest’ in Peterborough every September which raises money for our local conservation interests and work Publications |
| The club newsletter, Limosa limosa, comes out
towards the end of each month and includes local bird sightings, bird
identification help, trip reports and garden bird survey information,
all contributed by our members.
We also publish a Bird Report each year including a description of the birds recorded in the PBC area for the year. Both Limosa limosa and the Bird Report are free to members and the 1998 to 2004 reports can be found online here. The Where to Watch Birds in the Peterborough Area site guide is due to be released for Bird Fest, September 2006. It will include full descriptions of the best sites in the Peterborough area and a check list of species seen in the PBC area.
