Listeining to Radio 4 this morning ( Monday) they mentioned an RSPB
report that 80% of all garden bird young are taken by cats and grey
squirrels with 100% of teh nests being disturbed.

I'd take the word of a CONservation hooligan with a pinch of salt,
RSPB just trying to make a buck again out of sensationalism.

I wonder if this if
this is time to lobby the government for controls oncat ownership and
what members of this N thinkabout a regulated cull of the grey
squirrel?

Why change the habits of a lifetime, why all of a sudden are thse a
"problem"? They're not, only in the mind of a few weird twitchers.
