Abstract

The population of stone-curlew Burhinus oedicnemus in the UK declined by 85% between 1940 and 1985, when there were only 150-160 pairs. By 2008, there were over 340 breeding pairs. This dataset documents the RSPB Recovery Projects monitoring of the UK stone-curlew population in Central Southern England and East Anglia. Specially created nesting plots and areas with suitable habitat, both semi-natural and arable are surveyed throughout the breeding season (April - October). Locations of all breeding & non-breeding pairs & singletons were recorded. The dataset was funded by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) and Natural England.
