BTO is the UK's leading Registered Charity working with volunteers to improve our knowledge of birds through monitoring and research. www.bto.org
Next spring, we’re launching our Birds in Greenspaces project, which focuses on counting birds in publicly accessible spaces. It’s open to everyone and we’d love you to be involved. 😀

Cuckoo Tracking Project | BTO
About the projectWe’ve been satellite-tracking Cuckoos since 2011. We’ve learned lots of vital information, such as how the different migration routes are linked to declines, and some of the pressures Cuckoos face whilst on migration, but there is still much more to discover.

By using small programmable recorders to capture the sounds of birds and other wildlife, we can dramatically improve our understanding of many bird species, particularly in remote and inaccessible places. These insights can help us to target conservation action and protect the future for UK birds.
