Dear George,

A colleague and I are studying adaptation in urban birds, and are seeking help from birders and ornithologists to identify which of our focal species breed in the largest cities, worldwide. We have completed surveys for many of our focal cities, but are missing data for Kenya.

Are you familiar with the urban breeding birds of Mombasa or Nairobi, and if so, would you be willing to complete our survey? The survey takes about 10 minutes. You can find more information about the study, a complete list of focal cities, and links to the surveys (including Mombasa and Nairobi) here:
(please be sure the hit the "done" button at the end of the survey)

Also, we would be grateful if you could forward the link to any other active birders who might be familiar with the urban breeding birds of Kenyan cities, or any other city on our list.
 
Thanks very much for your help!!
 
Paul Martin
