Chineham Park Launches Park Watch

Chineham Park, Basingstoke's leading business location, has launched Park Watch, a survey of the birds spotted on the park over a month using Twitter.

Occupiers have been invited to tell us what they see and when they spot it on the park from Friday 08 April 2011 until Friday 06 May 2011.

People walking through the park, occupier visitors and members of the public using the onsite facilities can submit online too.

The birds have to be seen within a specific boundary and the Tweets collected throughout the month will form the survey results, which will be published at the end of May.

Rupert Batho, managing director for MEPC Chineham Park, said: “The ability to use social media on your mobile phone allows our occupiers and visitors to tweet what birds they see on the park instantly. Whether they are on their way to lunch, in their car or sat at their desk, Twitter is a convenient and quick way to collect data. We know from our occupiers that they do spot a wide variety of birds on the park and we wanted to get some more specific information about the birds that they see.”

If you spot a bird on the park, tweet a brief description to @Park_Watch.
