Hi all
Are you seeing higher Corvid numbers locally this year?
I'm seeing far more round my area this year, Magpies seem to rule the village with the Carrion Crow, even seeing Jays more often which are normally a rare sight here.
This is the first time I've seen cage traps in the fields I use, but that could be I'm pushing into land with no public ROW now while looking for the Hare. (Land owner is a Wild Foul Game keeper).
May not be linked, but are Goldfinch numbers appear lower this year too.
The harsh winter may have hit the small birds harder this year and then lead to the higher number of the predatory birds...
