James King has won the Martin Garner Spurn Young Birder 2019, a national award for young ornithologists aged 16 and under.
Each year, the Spurn Bird Observatory Trust and the British Trust for Ornithology host the Martin Garner Spurn Young Birder event. After a preliminary online round where applicants showcase knowledge of birds, six finalists are chosen to attend the Spurn Migration Festival.
Their assessment involves sea-watching, experiencing visible migration, watching birds on the Humber and answering additional questions on topics such as migration, taxonomy and bird calls.
Congratulations to James on winning this prestigious award.
