Question
I'm currently working on a project in science about biosphere 2,
i need to find a complete food web of a coniferous forest biome.
but none of the food webs are specific enough, they all just say 'birds' or 'insects' but i need to know which birds get the energy, and from what exactly?
what should i do to figure this out?

Answer
Hi Jake
 I goggled Coniferous forest food webs and found some sketches but i you want to more specific list the animals in a forests and then find out the feeding habits. I  think that this a case where a library will help you more then the Internet. Find a text on Biomes.
