     Decline in House Sparrows: Home Page

Welcome to my home page. My Doctoral thesis examined the reason for the decline in urban House Sparrows in Britain. My research was undertaken at De Montfort University, Leicester between November 2000 and October 2005. The main purpose of this site is to provide an archive of my research work: there has been considerable interest in the outcome of my research into House Sparrows from the media and the general public. These pages will also provide a possible vehicle for a broader public dialogue on this important issue, as the House Sparrow is one of the most well-known species of bird in Britain and it’s decline in urban areas is one of the most mysterious and complex declines of a species in the last 15 years. If you have any comments or want further information please feel free to email me.

Thank you for your interest in my work.
