My Doctoral thesis investigated the causes of the decline of the urban House Sparrow.
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 that is accessible to all
• provide a possible vehicle for a broader public dialogue on this important issue
• provide links to other relevant individuals and organisations
In this website you can read a brief overview of my research findings and access the full copy of my thesis. You can also follow the media coverage surrounding the publication of my thesis and scientifically refereed related papers and view resources based either upon my research or exploring other aspects of urban ecology. If these inspire you to take action there are links to related individuals and organisations as well as tips on what you can do to help.
If you wish to discover more about my professional experience and the services I offer as an ecological consultant you can read about me for further information. To see how I apply my academic and professional knowledge in a practical way please read and subscribe to my blog.

Thank you for your interest in my work.
