Hi All again,

     I do not intend to lose sleep over it but when a weed-like 
introduced bird such as Starling begins to fade I naturally wonder what 
is causing it. I heard some decades ago about traps for Starlings that 
function like  a lobster trap; easy to enter but impossible to exit. 
These were I think intended for poultry yards and feed plants.  Or it 
could be a symptom of too many Eagles. Or an overabundance of Hawks. Or 
it could be a consequence of too many urban life-unfriendly lawns where 
even ants have to move away in search of food. Insects have fallen to 
likely <5% of former times so food is possible. Or some unknown.

YT, Dave Kentville
