Hen Harrier soaring over Scottish moorland

Forecasting Raptor Breeding Success

For Scottish study groups and raptor specialists: precise analytical models that link prey cycles, micro-climates, and habitat variables to nesting outcomes.

Advanced Models for Key UK Species

Why do some territories thrive while others fail? Our data models decode the variables driving raptor recruitment across the UK.

Hen Harrier habitat analysis

Hen Harrier (Circus cyaneus)

Focusing on grouse moor interactions and multi-annual vole cycles to inform diversionary feeding and site protection strategies.

Prey Correlation

94% accuracy in predicting fledgling success based on micro-mammal density indices.

Peregrine Falcon nest surveillance

Peregrine Falcon

Analyzing urban vs. rural nest viability and anthropogenic disturbance factors.

Merlin

Modeling the critical nexus between heather moorland age, songbird prey density, and fledgling rates in Northern England and Scotland.

Merlin data assessment

We Integrate

  • 1

    Multi-source Prey Densities: Vole index data and passerine abundance surveys.

  • 2

    Fine-scale Meteorological Records: Precipitation levels during critical brooding weeks.

  • 3

    Topographical Vulnerability: Slope index and anthropogenic disturbance proximities.

Strategic Outputs

  • Prioritized Territory Ranking: Allocate limited field resources to high-viability nesting sites.

  • Limiting Factor Identification: Data-driven proof of whether prey or weather is the primary driver of failure.

  • Intervention Simulations: Evaluate the projected impact of diversionary feeding or habitat restoration.

Senior Biologist

"Standard field monitoring only gives us half the picture. Aviarylytics's predictive models allow our Scottish study group to anticipate breeding crashes before they occur, giving us time to adjust our protection protocols for the Hen Harriers."

"Why did we choose Aviarylytics? Because they speak the language of ornithology as fluently as the language of data science. Their Merlin models are scientifically rigorous and field-tested."

Sagal Pictoru profile

Sagal P.

"Unprecedented clarity on territorial success. The predictive accuracy they offer for Peregrine sites is simply world-class."
