The PERDIX team have recently visited @talltimbers1958 in Tallahassee, Florida, to continue our collaboration work, and to demonstrate the latest version of our PERDIXPro Project Management System at their Fall Field Days.

@GrahamDenny9 @Gallowaygrouse @ForWaders @Gameandwildlife @DavyMcCracken @DaveParish1 @scottishfarmer @ScotLandEstates @ScotGamekeepers @ScotCountryside @BASCScotland @RSPBScotland @NatureScot @LockettRichard @AndrewGilruth Incentives would help so much. Taken us nearly 10 years of project to get any species management funding in the form of FiPl for mink control. How often do you go to a meeting/conference where predation is the problem but it's the last item on the agenda.

@ForWaders @GrahamDenny9 @Gameandwildlife @DavyMcCracken @DaveParish1 @scottishfarmer @ScotLandEstates @ScotGamekeepers @ScotCountryside @BASCScotland @RSPBScotland @NatureScot @LockettRichard Forming cluster groups can really help with this, but make sure all are involved from the outset, landowners, farmers, keepers etc. It is entirely possible.

@Gallowaygrouse @GrahamDenny9 @ForWaders @Gameandwildlife @DavyMcCracken @DaveParish1 @scottishfarmer @ScotLandEstates @ScotGamekeepers @ScotCountryside @BASCScotland @RSPBScotland @NatureScot @LockettRichard It's difficult and comes down to the people involved. For me it was being shown the figures of rates of decline that were shocking. Then the realisation that you can do something positive to change that, then the extra nights out and effort can be so rewarding.

The joy at finding water vole poo for your "Whose Poo" game ready for Open Farm Sunday.
Several thousand expected to visit here on Sunday, where they can learn not only about farming but also the extensive conservation work we do. Recovery and re-introductions.

Take 5 mins and read this blog by @Gallowaygrouse

It encapsulates the challenges faced by breeding waders and those of us who are trying to save them but especially the failure of official mechanisms to rise to the scale of the crisis.

A really brilliant project - a source of advice & inspiration for our own breeding wader work 👏 @GWCTScience @RupertBrewer2 @LizzieGrayshon @RyanABurrell

[Rupert Brewer @RupertBrewer2]

@PaddyGalbraith @TrooperSnooks Definitely, we're now seeing second clutches due to the first ones being flooded. But the habitat should be for good brood rearing going forward.

[Waders For Real @WadersForReal]

The water has FINALLY dropped enough to access our best redshank site, with the redshank champion himself @RupertBrewer2! The nests have a 2 inch layer of dry grass in them to keep the eggs nice and dry, what a fantastic species! #conservation

[Rupert Brewer @RupertBrewer2]

@MeganRural @HOSbirding @_BTO @BBS_birds We have one that is mimicking all the redshank calling here.
