If you visited the woods and had a go at identifying and recording birds and/or butterflies this year as a result of following us, we'd love to hear from you! Complete our short survey at http://ow.ly/pHac30mqvAD and you could be in with a chance to win a £20 RSPB gift voucher. We'd also like to talk to a few people about their experiences of recording woodland wildlife in a bit more detail - if you're interested in participating in a short telephone interview you can let us know in the survey, and all those we interview will be offered a Field Studies Council identification chart for birds or butterflies. Closing date: 14th November.

If you spot a woodpecker when you visit the woods, please record it on (include in the comments). They're dead wood specialists, using it for nesting and feeding, and the holes they create are often reused by other species like t**s, treecreepers and nuthatches.

Even though it feels like summer's over, some butterflies are still about. If you spot any whilst you're out in the woods in Sussex and Kent, please remember to record them on iRecord Butterflies and include in the notes box each time so we can spot your records. Here are some of the butterflies you might encounter this month (but you're unlikely to see some of them in woodland!): http://ow.ly/TAoO30lGdbq

One of the things we're hoping to find out from this citizen science project is whether your records of birds and butterflies can tell us something about how woods are managed. Visit http://ow.ly/FP0530lvD7L to find out more about how woodland management affects wildlife.

The long, hot, dry summer has meant many berries are ripening earlier than normal, with consequences for birds later this year - your bird records will help us understand the impacts. Please record woodland birds on BirdTrack including in the comments http://ow.ly/pPlP30lvBnM
