Wetting measures in agricultural areas for lapwings

In 2017 and 2018, we contributed to a study on the effect of wetting measures in regular agricultural areas as a rearing area for lapwing chicks. For this purpose adult lapwings were marked and then followed by volunteers during the chick phase. This project was part of a study from Landschap Noord-Holland.
