The recent sunny weather has revitalised a number of our woodcock’s satellite tags resulting in the welcome return of some of our older birds. The good news continued today with the reappearance of Irina.

Despite only tagging one new bird this year, there is plenty of activity to report.

Dr Andrew Hoodless, GWCT Head of Wetlands Research, discusses new research on the effect of cold weather on the Eurasian woodcock.

After a long period of silence, Wensum has reappeared in Germany at a site just south of Hamburg. 

Chris Heward discusses some exciting new technology that is helping us understand more about the elusive woodcock.

Chris Heward introduces a new bird to Woodcock Watch and catches up with some old friends.
