You will get avifaunal assessments and monitoring for your project


Project details
Do you require avifaunal specialist input for your development or monitoring programme? I provide professional avifaunal assessments in line with South Africa’s Good Practice Guidelines for Birds & Wind Energy Facilities, as well as EIA/EMPr requirements.
With 20+ years of ecological consulting experience, I conduct both desktop assessments and intensive field-based surveys to identify sensitive bird species, habitat use, and potential collision or disturbance risks.
You will receive:
Desktop assessments & risk identification
On-site field surveys (short baseline studies or full monitoring)
Mortality search protocols & mitigation recommendations
Submission-ready specialist reports for BARs, EIAs, or EMPrs
This service is ideal for renewable energy facilities, agricultural expansions, and conservation-linked developments requiring robust avifaunal input.
