A KOS Talk by Chris Hewson - The BTO Cuckoo Tracking Project

What have we learnt and where we are heading

The BTO Cuckoo tracking project has been running since 2011, has revolutionised our understanding of cuckoo migration and has helped make significant advances in our understanding of bird migration between Europe and Africa more generally. This talk will review the rationale behind the project and how it has evolved as new information has come to light, as well as reviewing some of the major findings, particularly those relevant to understanding the population decline of the species in the UK. Finally, it will outline our plans for the future, describing how we are moving towards trying to understand how best to try to reverse the population declines as the causes are becoming more apparent
