National statistics announcement
Wild bird populations in the UK
Annual trends in wild bird populations in the UK. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the latest BTO/RSPB/JNCC Breeding Bird Survey collected limited data for the 2020 survey year. As a result, the 2021 publication of the Wild Bird Populations in the UK and in England will only be updated with new (2019/20) survey data for wintering waterbirds.
