A completely fair and unbiased democratic website for determining which birds are sh*t.

After an increasing annoyance at colourful show-offs getting all the attention, while pigeons, vultures and LBJs go unnoticed, now there is a website rating burbs democratically, from absolute sh*t to top bird.

"Good birds do not need iridescent plumage, a seven-foot tail or a documentary crew. Good birds get on with it."

Apologies in advance for the name. This comes from a place of love to highlight our more 'dull' species.

UK Nudibranch Atlas

Heya everyone,

Over the last few weeks I've been working on a small database of UK nudiranchs and marine molluscs. The idea came from a local ranger who took me nudibranch spotting in exchange for setting up some reptile surveys for them and she mentioned they often take school groups rock pooling, and thought it would be fun to have a really simple, beginner-friendly place to start learning.

The aim isn't to replace the excellent resources already in place (DORIS, WoRMS, iNaturalist, NBN etc.) but to give an accessible starting point.

Taxonomy has been checked against WoRMS, but this absolutely isn't my area of expertise. I've added a report function to each species, so if something is wrong please let me know. I'd genuinely love any feedback and thoughts on how it's coming together. Thank you! 🐌
