I'm a PhD candidate studying urban bird conservation, lifelong birder, and this is only my second post on BirdForum.
I have a chapter in my dissertation on the history of nestboxes and current nestbox practices, and would like to comment on why people are motivated to put up nestboxes. This isn't an official poll; someday I may do a more detailed and scientific survey. In the meantime...here's my questions.
Why are you motivated to put up nestboxes?
How did you get started putting up nestboxes?
With all the other things you could be doing, why put up nestboxes?
If you care to respond, please do so in as much detail as you are comfortable with, but I'd really love to hear everyone's thoughts on this. And if you give me a really juicy quote, maybe I can work it into the disseration!
Thanks in advance for your comments.
