There are hardly any birds to watch here now. New neighbours behind my garden, have taken a chain saw to all the trees and shrubs in their garden to ground level. Now the hundreds of sparrows have all gone. I fill the bird bath everyday and this morning one blackbird went in for a good bath. It made me so happy.
I have seen the buzzards wheeling overhead. It seems as if they are on thermals as thei r wings don't move.
They must be conserving energy as well.
