Bird surveys

We conduct acoustic and field surveys, complete diagnostic of bird communities, and provide tailored recommendations for conservation and land-use planning. Whether for a municipality, organization, business, or indigenous community, we support you in your projects and address your concerns by providing concrete solutions.

Acoustic surveys

  • Deployment of autonomous recorders for a cost-effective complete inventory
  • Analysis of recordings using Wildtrax software, by some of North America’s most renowned expert ornithologists.
  • Identification capabilities superior to artificial intelligence regarding diversity and abundance.
  • Identification extended to other species groups, such as anurans (frogs) and Quebec mammals.

Result: A comprehensive report on the soundscape community of a given area

Field surveys

  • Development of rigorous protocols using point counts and transects
  • Identification of breeding and migratory species
  • Compliance with bird protection laws and regulations
  • Complete seasonal assessment of the bird community
  • Evaluation of potential for establishing protected areas
  • Analysis of potential risks, mitigation measures, and concrete recommendations to enhance and protect avian diversity

Result: an accurate assessment of bird communities with tailored recommendations

Conservation of species at risk

  • Targeted surveys of threatened species, such as the Canada Warbler, Olive-sided Flycatcher (photo), Chimney Swift, and Eastern Wood-Pewee
  • Identification of potential habitats for these species
  • Recommendations for habitat conservation and restoration
  • Implementation of mitigation measures to support them (nest boxes, adapted land management, changes in practices, etc.)

Result: a complete study targeting species at risk, with recommendations for their conservation
