Bird Survey

Windrush Ecology has both in-house bird survey expertise but also work with a number of specialist ornithologists to deliver expert ornithological surveys. This includes breeding bird surveys, over-wintering bird surveys and wetland bird surveys based on BTO methodology, as well as species specific surveys and vantage point surveys for solar farms, wind farms and wind turbine projects.

A bird survey may be required for developments that could impact bird habitats or bird species, particularly those that are protected under Schedule 1 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act. We have also undertaken a number of surveys related to solar farms and the use of lakes for recreation.
