What is happening nowTargets• We know work on many of our
habitats and species has been successful
• We have data within the partnership for many of our HAPsand SAPs but each partner manages this in different ways
• Problem with reporting – BARS and local collection of data Speedy the Barn Owl

What is happening now
Example: Reedbed• Currently there are
approximately 40-50 hectares of Reedbed currently in Nott’s
• Over 35 hectares of this has been created since 2005
• By the end of 2010 we will not meet our targets for creation – Why?

•Landscape Scale Conservation
•Improved Annual Reporting
