This document contains a progress report for the Cairngorms Capercaillie Project, covering January to March 2022. The project aims to help capercaillie survive in the long term in the UK, with actions being carried out across the Cairngorms National Park. Key activities include enabling community-led conservation efforts, raising awareness about capercaillie, researching their genetic diversity, improving their habitat, and strengthening monitoring. The report details progress in different communities (Carrbridge, mountain biking, business, visitor, and Deeside), as well as work with landowners to improve habitat. The project also focuses on managing risks and monitoring its budget.
