Re: effects of wet july on species

Sometimes this causes the opposite effect next year, if the voles are doing well, then next year there will be more so maybe the owl population will have a better year next year for example. Areas devastated by floods quickly become recolonised by species, it opens up niches. I'm sure this weather is having an affect of wildlife but i arnt convinced it is as big as we think, will be interesting to see where we stand when the surveys etc are carried out.
