Claud Buchanan Ticehurst FRGS (8 January 1881 – 17 February 1941) was a British ornithologist.
[1][2] Following the family tradition he trained as a medical physician, receiving an MRCS and LRCP from Guy's Hospital.
He served in British India, mainly in Karachi but with visits to Basra and Quetta from 23 September 1917 to 14 January 1920, a period when he became a friend of Hugh Whistler who shared an interest in ornithology.
He was elected to the British Ornithologists' Union in 1903 and while at Cambridge he was influenced by Alfred Newton.
After retirement he once again took a keen interest in the collection of birds, and made trips to Spain, Yugoslavia, Portugal and Algeria and was sometimes accompanied by John Lewis James Bonhote and Hugh Whistler for this purpose.
