Record submission

It would be much appreciated if you could take the time to read the text below and provide the additional details noted.

We only post selected records on the website front page but all records submitted are held in the database and are available for data analysis and the annual report.

Privacy and data protection

Submission of a wildlife record creates data which may be classed as personal information. Our privacy policy explains how the HNHS and Herts Bird Club comply with their data protection obligations.

Grid reference, Breeding Status, Flock Sizes

Your records are more useful with a grid reference and breeding status information so please supply an accurate grid reference (either enter one in the 'Grid reference' field or click 'Get grid ref.' to use the map) and use the dropdown to indicate breeding status with your record. Where relevant, please note if a single flock or number of small flocks in the comments box.

Rarer Species

Species on the Hertfordshire list needing descriptions are shown here. Descriptions should be submitted using the Herts rarity description form which will be sent to you automatically via email after the record is submitted.

Data entry spreadsheet

Records can also be submitted using the HBC Data Entry Spreadsheet. Please send completed files to birdrecorder@hnhs.org
