The Isles of Scilly Recorder is Nigel Hudson. Please post all records of common, scarce and rare birds to him at:

P.O. Flat
Hugh Town
St Mary's
Isles of Scilly
TR21 0LL

We prefer if you send BBRC records to Nigel first, and he will forward to the BBRC (or BOURC if appropriate). as otherwise we have no way of knowing which sightings have been reported.

When on Scilly outside of the October birding period you can find information about recent sightings on the ISBG Bird Board (see photograph). It is updated daily. The board is located outside the back entrance of the Pilot’s Gig Restaurant. The back entrance is opposite the Mermaid pub near St Mary’s quay. Please post all your sightings on this board because your sightings are important and will contribute to the annual ISBG Review.
