About Katty Baird
Biography
I joined Forest Research in 2024. Prior to this I worked as an ecological consultant on various projects, with a focus on entomology and conservation. I am interested in understanding the biodiversity that woodlands and trees can support and ways we can improve this. I volunteer for local wildlife groups and have a specialism in moths. I won the NBN award for terrestrial wildlife recording in 2024.
