Get Involved
We are always looking for people to help undertake surveys and monitoring. Do you know of a location favored by wading birds?
Maybe you are a landowner who wants to help waders thive on your land.
Survey Methods Designed
We have now put together standard methods for surveying each species; both for breeding and wintering.
This will allow us to collect accurate data that we can compare across different locations and years. From this we can asses how our wading birds in Wiltshire are faring and this can be fed into the national picture.
