Wetland Bird Survey – Breeding Birds Training Workshop

Over the next year the Wild Ouseburn project will be developing a series of surveys across the project area. The surveys will follow seasonal changes of species and follow existing methodologies. The results gathered will help build a better picture of the wildlife in the area, enabling us to better conserve and enhance habitats and species, boosting the vibrant biodiversity of Wild Ouseburn!

The Wetlands Bird Survey has been underway for three weeks now, with the Spring breeding season now upon us it’s time to record some extra data. This training workshop will be a top-up session for existing surveyors, to identify the signs of breeding behaviour, and how to record broods of young birds.

Meet outside the Cycle Hub for 9am, new survey sheets will be provided.

If you would like to start getting involved in wildlife surveying through Wild Ouseburn, or are intrigued and would like to simply find out more you can get in touch with us here.

Please note that you do not need to have prior knowledge of birds to take part in these surveys.
