Biography

Kevin Rylands is a birder and naturalist. His passion for birds was sparked in the southeast but Devon has been his adopted county, and Dawlish Warren his local patch, since 1991. He has worked for the RSPB for over 25 years, supporting and encouraging farmers to boost the conservation of Chough, Cirl Bunting and Stone-curlew in particular. He has also maintained the Dawlish Warren Recording Group website since 2004 and was Devon Bird Recorder for six years.

Sara McMahon started birding at age eight in the Midlands, armed with her plastic binoculars and the Observer Book of British Birds. She has contributed to many field reports, research papers and magazines, including writing Bird Watching magazine's monthly Cornwall round-up for over 20 years, and is the co-author of Best Birdwatching Sites in Cornwall and Scilly. Now based in Plympton, Devon, Sara is an active birder, particularly enjoying rarities, patch birding, and seawatching along the Devon and Cornwall coasts.
