The Scottish Ornithologists’ Club and British Trust for Ornithology have just opened applications for young nature enthusiasts, ages 10 – 16 years, to apply to take part in the Scottish Bird Camp 2025 – a fully-funded weekend at the end of May, in East Lothian – learning about Scotland’s birds among like-minded others. There will be a varied programme of activities across the weekend which, depending on the weather, may include a seabird boat trip, ringing demo, nature reserve visit, nest finding and learning to identify bird songs and calls. The deadline for applications is Sunday 30 March 2025 at 5pm.
