Research and corrections
We research each page from the sources linked on it, using AI tools to help draft and organise, and check facts against those sources before publishing.
Reserve operators are the first source for visitor arrangements. Transport providers supply service information; council and tourism sources add local context. Measured driving estimates identify their route source. The review date on each reserve guide records its source review.
For a correction, email webmaster@aibirder.co.uk, including the page, the detail concerned and a current official source where possible. Use the contact and corrections page for guidance.
Funding and independence
Some accommodation links are affiliate links. If you book through one, the site may receive a commission. They are labelled beside the accommodation choices. Read the affiliate disclosure for details. Accommodation bases are selected for practical geography; no personal hotel inspection or endorsement is implied.
Image policy
Reserve photographs carry their creator, source and licence beside the image. Reuse must follow that licence. Artwork is labelled Illustration where used. A photograph shows a place or subject at one moment; the guide’s seasonal advice helps you choose your own visit.
