Conservation and Ecological Biology

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Although I am keen to gain more research experience it is also important to me to work within organisations such as NGOs and reserves. This stems from my practical hands-on mindset. Research is only useful if it is being used to make a difference.

I am associated with Ecolocation, a ecological consultancy at which I carry out dawn and dusk bat surveys, reptile surveys and help to produce ecological reports. I have experience using camera taps, bat detectors and static detectors which are helpful tools not only in surveying but also in media creations.

Prior to my working with Ecolocation I have undertaken volunteer work at Warwickshire County Council’s Biological Records Centre. I have also volunteered on Warwickshire Wildlife Trust’s Survey Force. Both of these organisations have allowed me to enhance my identification of UK plant and animal species.

This has been a brief summary of my beginning along my yellow brick road.

Be the change that you want to see in the world.
