 Where have all the Birds gone? - devonite
This morning I lay in bed listening to the dawn chorus (if you could call it that!) nothing but a cacophony of raucous Gulls, and two Collared Doves.
There used to be plenty of Doves calling to each other, and several Blackbirds singing merrily from the nearby trees and rooftops, and several other indeterminable smaller birds cheeping away.
That set me thinking, down the allotment which is surrounded by two Rugby pitches, several hedgerows and trees, this year it's been very quiet, there are usually loads of Swallows skimming low over the pitches, this year I've only seen two. I also had a gaggle of about a dozen hedge Sparrows flitting along my hedges - gone, I haven't seen a Song Thrush for almost three years, and so far this year I haven't even heard a Black bird let alone seen one!
My peanuts hang virtually untouched, my Tits have also disappeared. Whats happened to them all? it's rather worrying! - What usual visitors to your gardens are you missing this year?.
