WHERE HAVE ALL OUR BIRDS GONE?

WHEN THE RSPB reports that 600 million birds have been lost across Britain and Europe there are questions in Parliament, letters to The Times, and Tweets of outrage. But what does it mean? For most people, a day in the countryside is much as it ever was: a hill to climb, a stream in which to paddle, a grassy spot for a picnic. There are birds – some birds – and certainly no signs of a massacre.

But birds don’t disappear by the million, they fade away, one by one, as a tree is felled and a meadow is drained. To see it takes a long view. Two Turtle Doves lost from Three-Corner Spinney. Five pairs of Nightingales lost from Salthouse Heath. One hundred and fifty Tree Sparrows lost from Bullfurlong Lane. Three pairs of Linnets lost from Corstorphine Hill. Two Cuckoos lost from Cross Roads Farm. Four pairs of Willow Tits lost from Foster’s Pond. Sixty Reed Buntings lost from Sketchley Brook.
