Survey

### A zero count is data, and it is the data nobody submits

People only submit when they see something, which biases every dataset upward. A blank return from a proper hour of watching is genuinely valuable.

#### What to do

One hour, one place, once a week between April and September. Record what you see, and record it when you see nothing.

#### Why zeros matter

Absence data is what shows decline. A dataset made only of sightings can never show anything getting rarer, only where it still is.

#### The skill needed

Six species, all common and all illustrated on the sheet. Nobody is expected to identify anything beyond those six.
