We have uploaded an updated version of our submission form to the website at bbrc.org.uk/submit-a-sightin…
It has a couple of new bits to fill in that will help us, mainly asking for details if it is a returning bird or considered 'same as' another sighting. Thanks.

A little reminder that we are asking for submissions of all Red-headed Buntings post-1990 (inc spring males) and would especially like to receive descriptions of the Oct 94 and Oct 98 buntings on Isles of Scilly, as original submissions seem to be lost. Thanks @scillybirds
