Exe Disturbance Study

Footprint Ecology is using a novel method to assess disturbance to wintering birds on the Exe Estuary. GPS units are being provided to local watersports clubs, training centres and shops around the Exe who are working with us to look at where and when activities are taking place. The GPS data will be used alongside bird surveys, visitor surveys and interviews with the local watersports community to build up a clear picture of access impacts on the estuary .

Our logo

The Footprint Ecology logo represents contact between people and nature in a way that meets the needs of both. The green and the grey symbolise natural and artificial environments, and the bare feet resonate with the idea of “treading lightly on the earth”. Our logo was designed by Rob Still
