Managed five lifers this morning on a brief stroll through Dubai including Indian Roller, Shikra, Grey Francolin, Indian Pied Starling and this here White-cheeked Bulbul.
Got the Nocmig out for a nice session last night including a Tufted Duck! A garden Nocmig first nonetheless. Also plenty of redwings, some nice Wigeon passes and a Dunlin #nocmigtrektellen.org/count/view/26…
Awesome to show Abby her first Bottlenose Dolphins at Barmston. They had moved quite a long way offshore when we got there, after feeding close in this morning
LiDAR is the only way flight heights can be measured currently, and not modelled. I will be very interested in the outcome of this study as @APEM_Ltd provide LiDAR as part of their Digital Aerial Survey service.
We're using laser technology to understand #seabird flight heights, wind turbine collision risk and mitigation.
Our multi-partner 'ReSCUE' project, funded by @CrownEstate, uses #LiDAR to facilitate nature-friendly expansion of #OffshoreWind.

The highlight of this morning's #Migweek walk with @LeeLj337 for @FlamboroughBird, a Twite plus Yellow-browed Warbler, Brambling, Marsh Harrier and Corn Bunting.
