Online European Headstarting Workshop

A two-day, online event to bring together European headstarting project leads and experts to share knowledge, experience and best practice. 

 

By learning from each other and pooling experiences we can all help Curlews much more effectively. And by caring for Curlews we also make sure the places where they live are resilient to climate change and the many other pressures on wildlife today. 

 

Visit our workshop page to find out more about the event.

Ground-nesting birds

From March-July we need to be extra careful to protect nests. Curlews nest on the ground and so are particularly vulnerable to disturbance from walkers, cyclists and inquisitive pooches.

Let's work together to make sure Curlews have a successful nesting season by keeping to paths and having dogs on leads in nesting areas.

Our two signs are available to download for free in English or Welsh. Additionally, laminated and plastic corrugated signs can be ordered from us.

Fieldworker Toolkit

Curlew Action has collaborated with the Curlew Recovery Partnership, BTO and WWT to bring you an online toolkit containing loads of essential tips and techniques for working with Curlews.
