Being both a birdwatcher and a conservationist with practical farming
experience, I’m happy to have the opportunity to work in a project
combining these two interests! My research focuses on migrating birds,
their use of agricultural landscapes and the way(s) in which today’s
farming practices may affect them. By monitoring birds on farm-scale, I
try to find patterns on field and habitat use of different species. I’m
also interested in how farming practice (e.g. organic vs. conventional
farming) and landscape type on a larger scale influence the distribution
of birds during the migratory season. I am also working more
specifically on Golden Plovers and their stop-over ecology in the
intensively used agricultural areas in Southern Sweden, using mainly
ringing data, radio-telemetry and field observations.
