Thank heavens for people like you ❤ I can't remember the last time I heard a curlew in Scotland, and it was a normal and wonderful part of my childhood. Thank you!! 💚

Lovely film about these wonderful birds. I’m distraught about the loss of these iconic birds and these types of activity are just so important. Thank you to the team for all the work you are doing.

My absolute favourite bird along with lapwings - the sound of the wild places. Was lucky enough to have a smallholding in Aberdeenshire for 11 years where both were present. Just loved them so much.

A beautiful place. Co-existing with the A9. Let's hope they prosper and increase. Great work. Thanks.

Great work and such total dedication- thankyou

We have a reasonable number of curlews that overwinter on the Lothian coast. The question I would ask is what is causing the drop in Curlew numbers? Is that cause the reason why we are seeing an almost global drop in numbers of all kinds of species?

[@outoftownr3906]

If you provide the right habitat for a ground nesting specialist like Curlew then you must protect the sitting adult,eggs & chicks from predators of which the Fox & Crow are the worst.

Fantastic and fascinating work. I would suggest however the best i.e the safest place will always be any landholding or landscape which endorses full take up of the “three-legged stool” conservation approach as with Grey Partridge conservation. All-year-round habitat supply, abundant food and proportionate legal predator controls. Here is hoping that any success you may achieve continues and that those “on the ground” with that much needed energy and resources are permanently on-board long into the future. If not, you will be doomed to fail our Curlews and many other species besides.
