Manx BirdLife is the independent wildlife conservation charity based in the Isle of Man working to protect, restore and enhance the Island’s wild bird populations and the habitats on which they depend.
We care passionately about the natural world. We are deeply concerned about the biodiversity crisis affecting species and habitats and believe wild birds play a vital, functional role in the ecosystem.
Manx BirdLife is working to sustain the abundance and diversity of wild birds on the Isle of Man through:
· Surveys and Censuses e.g. the 2022 Hen Harrier census and the 2025 Chough Census
· Conservation projects across the Island
· Citizen Science projects e.g. the Manx BirdLife Garden Birdwatch which has been running for over 20 years, and the new Buzzard Citizen Science project which will be launching in March 2025
· Environmental Education - working with all of the Island’s primary schools to educate children about the amazing wildlife found on the Isle of Man
· Habitat Creation - in 2019 the charity embarked on a once in a generation opportunity to create a nature reserve at the Point of Ayre. This will be developed over the next 20+ years to produce a fantastic resource for the people and wildlife of the Isle of Man
