The Conservation Education Center of BNHS gives you an opportunity to get into the shoes of scientist and wear the hat of a data collector, just for a day! We have planned a three-day biodiversity survey at BNHS Reserve. We will be surveying trees, birds and butterflies on each day. You as a participant will learn to observe record and analyze the data in a scientific manner. This will sharpen your analytical and observation skills which are useful for wildlife studies. You will learn to use field guides, data sheets and GPS units. You will work laboriously along with a subject expert treading the five nature trails. The survey will address three research parameters; species diversity, species abundance and species seasonality. You need to be 10 years old and above with basic computer skills. Certificate will be given to all those who successfully complete their surveys. At the end of the project, each student will chose a survey of their choice to be carried out in their own localities.
