Latest issue:
The latest report, covering 2021, was published in autumn 2024. For the second year running our largest issue ever, with 166 pages packed with information and colour photos. Details are given for every species recorded in 2021, together with summaries for every species ever seen in Lothian. There's an article on the Western Bonelli's Warbler at Barns Ness, and the results of the annual Mute Swan census. This year there's a seabird theme, with an overview of the Seabirds Count census, a study of inland nesting Black-headed and Common Gulls, and the results of the roof-nesting gull survey.
