Bird Surveys

In the UK all wild birds, their nests and eggs are protected by law and some species like the barn owl are given additional protection under European and national legislation. To avoid committing an offence it’s important that you take birds into account when planning your project.

How we can help

Our trained ornithologists can lead bird surveys and ensure that site clearance and vegetation trimming happens at the right time of year to avoid disrupting birds.

We can also provide the more in-depth assessments needed for larger scale projects – such as wind farms – to monitor the impact on local nesting and migratory bird populations.
