Welcome to the RSPB Croydon Local Group's website
RSPB local groups are a great way to meet friendly, like-minded people in your area while learning more about birds and wildlife.
This website should give you an insight into the Croydon Local Group’s activities. Keep an eye on the News page as updates of what we will be doing will be posted there along with other information, such as our surveys and bird reports. Reports about our outings can also be found on there.
