In an online course designed specifically for a Northern Ireland audience, learn how to safely find and monitor birds' nests for the Nest Record Scheme, by following the NRS Code of Conduct.

 

 

Nest recording is an incredibly rewarding way to connect with your local birds. By following the progress of nests, you can gather vital information on breeding success and productivity. This online event will introduce you to the Nest Record Scheme and how to take part. 

 

If you're not a resident of Northern Ireland, you might prefer to attend a different BTO training course.

 

This course is not designed for professional ecological consultants.
