Books, Manuscripts
This account of the breeding birds covers Moray, Aberdeenshire and Aberdeen City - almost 4% of the UK land area and 11% of Scotland, and includes close to half of the Cairngorms National Park. It is the largest "tetrad"- scale atlas ever undertaken and maps the distributions of all breeding birds during the period 2002-06. As the first local breeding bird atlas repeated for any part of Scotland, it also makes comparisons with earlier local and national atlases. 350 observers took part, with 60 of these also writing the species accounts .62 photographers contributed a wide range of images which illustrate breeding activity.With the support of Scottish Natural Heritage, Forestry Commission Scotland, Cairngorms National Park Authority, RSPB Scotland, Aberdeenshire Council and East Grampian Coastal Partnership.
