WILTSHIRE BIRDS

Wiltshire Ornithological Society was formed on November 30th, 1974, and has grown in recent years to more than 500 members... Bird conservation is an absolute priority for the Society. Wiltshire's chalk downlands and wide-ranging grasslands provide excellent habitat for Stone- curlew, Tree Sparrow, Corn Bunting, Yellowhammer and Quail and there are significant breeding populations of these species. We promote the conservation of Tree Sparrows through nestbox and feeding schemes, working closely with other organisations and sharing our expertise with other counties. We also monitor Barn Owl and raptor numbers and provide breeding rafts for Common Terns.
