The Irish Wetland Bird Survey (I-WeBS) is the national monitoring project
for non-breeding waterbirds, wintering in Ireland, organised by BirdWatch Ireland and the NPWS section of the Department
of Environment, Heritage and Local Government. The project aims to be the primary source of data for the conservation
of waterfowl populations and the wetland habitats on which they depend. Winter 2007/08 will be the survey's 14th
