In just 50 years we have lost over 90% of this iconic species.
Thousands of BTO survey hours have identified the most important sites for this well-loved species. This critical evidence helped protect the important habitat at Lodge Hill from development, a Site of Special Scientific Interest that is home to the UK’s largest remaining Nightingale population.
What we learnt from the survey data may have been a turning point for this special little bird and its legendary song – this is the difference your support can make.
