This long-running national survey
monitors trends in oil pollution affecting seabirds and beaches. The RSPB needs
to increase its survey coverage - we have many accessible beaches without an
allocated surveyor. Your local beach needs you!
The survey involves walking the most
recent high tide line (strandline) of an agreed stretch of accessible sandy or
pebble beach to record accurately any evidence of pollution, such as oil, and
the number and species of any 'beached' seabirds. This survey will need to be completed during
the 24 and 25 February 2018. This opportunity
is suitable for all ages.
