Our ecologists undertake a variety of protected species surveys including breeding and wintering birds bat activity surveys with emergence and internals on buildings dormice reptile and badgers to name a few. Each survey has seasonal timing personnel and geographic restrictions that determines when and who can undertake such surveys; this needs to be fed into our schedule for each ecologist so they know where and with whom they are going every day.
