Wetland ecology and marsh birds
Black tern nest predation study
In many grassland areas, nest predation is a serious problem for black terns. It is often unclear which animal species depredate clutches or chicks. For this reason, wild cameras were installed at three locations in 2019 to get a picture of the possible predators. The project was funded by the Zuid-Hollands Landschap.
