Birds in Spring
The Willoweave woodland is begining to stir with the activity of nesting birds. Due to the structural complexity of willow and the difference in morphology of the many varieties, at least 32 bird species have been recorded in SRWC. Arboreal species such as Tits and Warblers, ‘skulking’ species such as Wren and Robin, and migrant species also utilise the willow coppice. In west Wales, preliminary results from a study (by Llysdinam’s Wales Biomass Centre and IGER) using mist nets to evaluate the avian biodiversity of SRC recorded 14 species of birds within the cropped areas of first year SRC; and avifauna flocks of reed buntings (Emberiza schoeniclus) and finches were also observed.
To encourage nesting birds in your garden you may want to install a bird box this spring, if you already have a willoeave fence then attach one to a fence post. The box below is ideal.
