The Avon Ornithological Group (AOG), set up in 1983, exists to produce the annual Avon Bird Report. Bristol Naturalists’ Society and Bristol Ornithological Club, who are equal partners in the venture, each appoint two members to the Executive Committee which controls the Group’s operation. Members of the Executive Committee are currently; Jason Williams (chairman), Rich Mielcarek (treasurer), Robert Hargreaves (secretary) and Giles Morris.
The County Recorder, Rupert Higgins, and his committee check the submitted records and verify any that are unusual or rare. The Recorder’s Committee currently consists of Rich Andrews, Andy Davis, Rich Mielcarek, Aravind Ramesh, and Harvey Rose.
Each year an Editorial Committee is appointed who, under the guidance of the Editor Harvey Rose, analyse the records and draft the species accounts for the report.
Records for inclusion in the Report should be submitted to Rupert J Higgins
