The Operation Chough webcam is back!
Spring is finally on the way in Cornwall – and birds are starting to carry twigs and nesting materials. Our breeding choughs have now been moved into secluded aviaries and are starting the new breeding season.
This year we have eight breeding pairs. There are five pairs in our seclusion aviaries, a pair in each of the large polytunnel aviaries, and one pair in our original chough breeding aviary in the public area of the park.
Chicks bred this year will be supplementing the growing flock of released choughs in Kent as part of the ongoing Chough Reintroduction Program, with thanks to our partners at Kent Wildlife Trust and Wildwood Trust.
