  • English
  • wel
  • All

Confidential database of records of Welsh raptors, chough and some other non-raptor Wildlife and Countryside Act Schedule 1 birds. Type of data: nest sites, chick counts and grid references (although some locations are coded by the license returnee and only the area the license covers is given, the exact location is unknown.) This data is strictly confidential due to Protected Schedule 1 status of birds. Selective parts of the data (but not in full or in the same form) are shared with Reg Thorpe, RSPB and Rare Breeding Birds Panel. This dataset is used for casework, survey, monitoring and site designation across Wales.
