The project includes a number of activities, including:

• Organizing and conducting bird counts.
• Installation of nest boxes.
• Feeding the tits in the winter.
• Educational work with the population.

The project is implemented in all regions of Russia. In Bryansk Oblast, the project is implemented by the Bryansk Regional Branch of the Russian Bird Conservation Union. The project is supported by the Bryansk Regional Department of Natural Resources and Ecology.
