Submit Your Photographs

The Society invites members to submit photographs for use on the website (see final condition below), with a caption naming the species (vernacular and scientific names) and, where appropriate, describing the location, conditions and circumstances. This will be especially valuable in the case of rare species or more unusual sightings and specimens. The editor reserves the right, in cases of doubt, to check identification with County recorders.
