The following message, received from a friend after Bills death, surely sums up his time as BTO rep for Wiltshire: ‘he has truly been an inspiration to me in my birding activities and was the reason I joined the BTO’. My own memories of the very many bird surveys Bill and I did together are among the happiest of my very many happy ones. He contributed so much and helped so many, both birds and people.
