The Sussex Biodiversity Record Centre publishes an excellent annual report (see http://sxbrc.org.uk/biodiversity/publications/#adastra), to which the SOS contributes a section on birds. I have written this for bird records in 2016 and would be very grateful for a small number of good quality photos of birds photographed in Sussex in 2016, of any of the species in the list below.  The photos should not be the same as ones in the 2016 Sussex Bird Report, which is arriving through letterboxes as I write.  There is a short section on ringing so photos of birds in the hand are acceptable. Please email photos to me at recorder@sos.org. uk.  They will be credited to the photographer.  Thanks.
