Monday 22 April | The impacts of
climate change on iconic woodland birds of
the Welsh uplands, such as
Pied Flycatchers, Redstarts and
Wood Warblers, illustrated by studies being
carried out by Cardiff University at our
Oak woodland reserve in the
Bannau Brycheiniog / Brecon Beacons.
The talk will examine how the populations of
these species are changing, as well as the
changes in breeding behaviour by which the
birds can respond to variations in weather
conditions and food availability. These studies
provide insights into how woodland birds can
best be conserved in a rapidly changing world. | Dr Rob Thomas Senior Lecturer, Cardiff School of Biosciences |
