The water has FINALLY dropped enough to access our best redshank site, with the redshank champion himself @RupertBrewer2! The nests have a 2 inch layer of dry grass in them to keep the eggs nice and dry, what a fantastic species! #conservation
This lapwing was tagged as part of our new Fallow Plot study. It was a retrap, ringed as a chick by @RyanABurrell during his PhD on lapwing back in 2019, on the same plot. The data will help us improve arable nesting lapwing options as part of this @NaturalEngland funded study.
☀️ The sun was shining and several rare birds paid a visit as a group of farmers, land managers, rangers and ecologists gathered to get inspiration from the success of the GWCT's wader conservation work in the Avon Valley #workingforwildlife @WadersForReal
Always brilliant to get sightings of Avon Valley breeding redshank outside the breeding season. This one hasn’t gone too far!

A day with fellow #FarmerClusters from the South learning about how Avon Valley Farmer Cluster @WadersForReal have been successful in increasing lapwing productivity - habitat management & reducing predators pressure. Also Dr Swan spoke about similar @Gameandwildlife projects
Lough Erne Wildfowlers' Council is delighted to announce our upcoming breeding wader conference! November 23rd at Lusty Beg Island, Co. Fermanagh. Book here now... eventbrite.co.uk/e/working-toge…
We have a exciting new job opportunity to join our wetlands research team! #conservation #ornithology gwct.org.uk/about/careers/…
Thank you for the sighting of one of our Avon Valley redshank, this was a chick reared in 2022!
Our Avon Valley redshank have almost all finished breeding and are heading off to their coastal summer grounds. Please keep a look out for colour ringed birds especially around the Hampshire coast, every sighting is hugely valuable to the project! #ornithology
You can count on #redshank's in the end of the breeding season... World champions fence post enthusiasts! @NIOZwdrc @WadersForReal @GlobalFlyway @WaderStudy @niooknaw @Waderworld1 @waderquest @ForWaders @WashWader @Behautwad @DZK_deWadden @WaddenseaUNESCO
It was a bit of a soggy start but it was a great day at open farm Sunday yesterday, we spoke to so many people about wader #conservation, predator management and #farming. The kids loved having a go at looking for lapwing in the hide! #LOFS23
First confirmed successful breeding of a Avon Valley redshank chick from 2021, now with big chicks of her own only a few fields across from where she hatched! #conservation #ornithology @GWCTScience
#Redshank is heading for UK RED LIST? @BBS_birds breeding decline 1995-2021 = 49% Another 5% decline 2021>2022 reported today Making decline of over 50% since 1995 Lots of background info in this thread: x.com/grahamfappleto… #waders #shorebirds #ornithology 📷Kevin Simmonds

Look at all those wader footprints! At least 2 pairs of lapwing and 2 pairs of redshank with chicks using this scrape, protected by an electric fence and with the removal of crows they have a pretty good chance at success! #conservation
And she’s back again for the 7th year running! Site faithful since fledging back in 2016. gwct.org.uk/news/news/2022…
It’s always a special day when we find the first #redshank nest. These birds are incredibly good at hiding their nests! Nest are found for research that feeds directly into their #conservation
The #NewForest is a key breeding grounds for rare #GroundNestingBirds 🐣 We are following their story this year with Lee, one of our Keepers who support wildlife in the Forest. He tells us about the birds & the species he's already spotted getting ready to breed. #StayOnTheTracks
Concerns about "not-quite-red-listed" Redshank. This blog from 23 Mar 2021 discusses population changes for coastal #waders: wadertales.wordpress.com/2021/03/23/wad… NEWS = Non-estuarine Waterbird Survey (@_BTO) #shorebirds #ornithology
Great to hear there are a few more voles going out to join the recently reintroduced population!
And the #lapwing are off! Great to get this pic in this morning from @RupertBrewer2 and inside a temporary electric fence too! Can’t wait to get out there myself! #conservation

This lapwing was tagged as part of our new Fallow Plot study. It was a retrap, ringed as a chick by @RyanABurrell during his PhD on lapwing back in 2019, on the same plot. The data will help us improve arable nesting lapwing options as part of this @NaturalEngland funded study.
