Scientists to study psychological benefits of birdsong

The impact of birdsong on our creativity and on our sense of wellbeing is to be explored in a research project supported by the National Trust and Surrey Wildlife Trust. 

Eleanor Ratcliffe, the researcher undertaking the study, said that while there was a growing body of environmental psychology looking at how the natural world affects people, there was still a lot to understand about the power
of specific natural sounds.
