Shame the RSPB are not inclined to spend some of our millions and do some serious research into this decline They do. Really! where? You may have seen, in this thread, mention of a "Kate" researching this. She is having her research funded in part by the RSPB. http://www.birdfood.co.uk/cj/project_hssparrow.htm Not really an all guns blazing contribution is it, doubtful it even reaches four figures in total. I'd have thought given the fact they rake in £50million PA and spend £7million PA on advertising, they could afford to at least show a real interest in finding out why the situation is so serious and not only for sparrows. Better to do it before it's too late I'd suggest. The first place to start might be to look at where the populations are stable or expanding, and then see what's missing in declining regions. This should also have been carried out years ago, but I guess we're only talking about sparrers!! |
