Lowland Grassland Survey

This BTO-funded survey is designed to assess the generality of bird preferences for grassland types, in terms of sward composition and management. The project is linked to intensive MAFF-funded grassland research elsewhere within the UK.

Fieldwork involved two summer visits to 1-km squares. The survey, originally planned for summer 2001, took place in summer 2002 due to the Foot and Mouth crisis.
