Now, a lot of what we citizens here do to advance the science is viewed as amateur work, most of which needs to be redone by professionals to be valid. It is very ironic, because most of us are/were scientists in our "professional" careers and lives!RGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02017190779860810318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16542790.post-56516227109944128232012-02-17T00:22:50.245+00:002012-02-17T00:22:50.245+00:00I am neither in the UK, nor an avid bird-watcher, ...I am neither in the UK, nor an avid bird-watcher, but still I enjoy hearing about your discoveries as you walk.

Citizen science engages people and helps them to care about out ecological world.
