Woodland bird survey | DerwentWISE

Thank you for taking the time to volunteer with us to record our wonderful woodland birds. You really are our eyes and ears on the ground, helping to build important records of woodland bird species that call Derbyshire's Lower Derwent Valley home. 

Below is everything you need, all the forms, health and safety information, site maps and also a section where you can upload your findings. Have fun and we can't wait to hear about what you found! 

Here is everything you need. First of all print off the recording form below as well as the site survey form. Then take a look at our survey protocol and importantly the risk assessment, then grab your binoculars (and camera!) and off you go!

Our survey sites are listed below and each has a map and a recording map for you. Now you've got all the important documents it is time for the fun to begin, enjoy! 

Upload all your forms here so we can help build important species records based on your findings. 

All your survey results will be recorded as part of the DerwentWISE project, a Heritage Lottery Funded landscape scale partnership project that restores the natural and cultural heritage of the Lower Derwent Valley. The DerwentWISE project is managed by Derbyshire Wildlife Trust.

Thank you!
