The Birds Of South Gloucestershire     Welcome to The Birds Of South Gloucestershire.   Established in 2005 The Birds Of South Gloucestershire (TBOSG) aims to provide a point of reference with easy access to information about rare, scarce and notable bird sightings, both full species and forms, seen in S. Glos. It is by no means authoritative nor exhaustive but it does I feel capture the essence of modern birding in this extremely important region of the UK. Information listed is gathered from a number of sources however reports of rare and scarce birds are subject to ratification by the appropriate rarities committee.
