This Bird Census News issue brings us three new articles, the first of which explores the use of historical bird records in Denmark and combining it with current atlas and monitoring data to draw conclusions on the changes in the avifauna within the last century, the second one from Belgium exploring the impact of Usutu virus on wild bird populations using the Common Bird Monitoring dataset, and finally an assessment of the status and conservation of Cinereous vulture in Armenia.
Finally, the BCN also introduced an EBCC board member – Aleksi Lehikoinen.
Enjoy the read!
