Kent Bird Report
The Kent Bird Report is published every year and describes the status of each species in Kent and a summary of birds recorded during the year of the review.
The report also contains periodic articles about different aspects of bird life and ornithology in the county
All paid up members receive a free copy of the Kent Bird Report as it is published and sent directly to the member's home address.
