Sparrows dying is something toxic in the environment?
Hi Neighbours,
A near neighbour has alerted me to a number of dead sparrows she has found in her garden. We have noticed a decline in the numbers visiting our 3 bird feeders, with this evening no sparrows at all. We have not found any dead sparrows, but do have neighbours with cats, and we do have a visiting hedgehog family. Has anyone else, seen dead sparrows or noticed a decline in the birds visiting their gardens? DOC has been alerted.
