Early Bird Survey

Yesterday I took part in the British Trust for Ornithology's Early Bird Survey http://www.bto.org/volunteer-surveys/gbw/about/background/projects/early-bird-survey

The survey is a repeat of one first carried out ten years ago and is intended to discover "what effect, if any, light and heat pollution have on the feeding patterns of birds during a cold winter’s morning" (BTO website). Here are my results
