Latest on the Lammergeier.

Enjoyed your blog article @RedPanda

We have managed to get on the Beeb and a few other news website with our research: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-34319051

Had a fair degree of success with it so far. If any of you want to get involved in some citizen science and help us understand how birds have evolved then check out our new website: http://www.markmybird.org.

Shameless self publicity once again but I am always on the lookout for some citizen science projects to get involved in so thought i'd give it a share in case a few of you were interested.

Hopefully you enjoy it!
