Research

SBS believes that more needs to be done to identify and evidence the full range of drivers behind continued songbird declines.

​

We commission and fund high-quality scientific research to fill in these evidence gaps.

 

Our research looks at a range of factors including habitat, food and predation.

​

Through scientific research, we aim to identify not only the causes of songbird decline but also effective management and mitigation measures to help restore small bird populations. Details of our current and previous research projects are below.
