If you are working or hoping to work a seabird detection dog, this has got loads of useful information, really worth a read: seabirdgroup.org.uk/seabird-36-2

Thanks to all the authors for taking the time to put all their knowledge down! Missy sends her thanks as well ♥️

We’ve been busy surveying for feral cat scat in an area that has a precious colony of burrowing birds. By finding the feral cat scat, we know where the cats are living, moving and hunting.

King would like to report that was a VERY wet zodiac ride and he’d now like a treat and a towel please

Thanks to the very talented Louise Clarke for drawing Sammy so beautifully 😍

Two years ago Sammy and I were having the best trip ever in #SouthGeorgia ! An amazing opportunity to do some rodent monitoring. We found no sign of rodents on South Georgia #rodentfree #detectiondog #snifferdog #rodentdog Government SGSSI SGHT Photos: Jamie coleman

A very joyful Christmas and Happy New Year from South Atlantic Detection Dogs!

Missy is being trained up to search for burrowing seabirds to help collect vital data so we know which burrows are occupied and where the birds are nesting.

I spent a few hours with Falklands Conservation this morning as they conducted a burrowing seabirds survey. This helps me train the burrowing seabird detection dog and understand how a dog might support this work in future 🐥🐕

A beautiful day for training and a reminder to go with the flow!

The tracks had been there for a while as Hunter was not that focused on them but he certainly figured out where the mice were now!
