Local Groups

The are numerous local groups in Devon who are either directly involved in ornithology or indirectly support avifauna interests through conservation, habitat preservation or management or are involved in some area of study within the area of biodiversity and conservation.

Many of these organisations share common goals and purposes, whilst others contribute in other ways.

Many of the members of Devon Birds are also supporters and members of many other organisations. Typically, DBWPS members are often members of the RSPB and BTO and many have membership of the Devon Wildlife Trust, the Barn Owl Trust, Devon Moth Group, Devon Bat Group and Butterfly Conservation amongst other conservation bodies.

This section of the web site, attempts to provide a brief overview of some of our Devon bodies who work directly or very closely with DBWPS on a more formal basis or through a common membership. 

The following list provides a link to a local page on this site specifically dedicated to the organisation in question and also a link to that organisations own web site if they have one.
