Birdfeeding study seeks birders

A survey organized by the Wild Bird Feeding Industry Research Foundation wants more input from birdwatchers who stock feeders at their apartments and houses. Project Wildbird will run through December 2008 and involves an online survey of backyard birdfeeding experiences that typically takes 15 minutes to complete.

With the data, the foundation plans to make recommendations about the food and feeders most likely to attract desired species. Hundreds of participants from 46 states and six Canadian provinces have submitted data so far.
