In spring, Turtle Doves fly thousands of miles to reach us, and they overcome incredible odds to get here. Their migration route involves navigating the Sahara Desert and flying up through Spain, Portugal and France. Once they’re in the UK, Turtle Doves need seed food to eat and suitable places to nest, if they hope to survive.
Your donation will go direct to Operation Turtle Dove: partners, farmers and landowners working together to make the UK ‘Turtle Dove Ready’. With your help, we provide the best places for them to feed, ponds and ditches for them to drink from, and scrubs and hedgerows for nesting.
