Reading University Research into Feeding Garden Birds


Reading UniversityReading University is looking for volunteers to take part in a research project into the effects of bird feeders in your garden. They want to hear from people who provide food all year round, from those who provide food in the winter only, and also from people who do not put out any food at all. There are two separate projects, one of interest to gardeners, as it aims at finding out whether garden birds earn their keep by keeping down pests in the garden.
For more information, and to sign up for the research projects, see http://www.reading.ac.uk/gardenwatch/ .
