Several weeks ago, I noticed that there were more birds--robins, sparrows, etc--in the area than in previous years. I also noted the complete lack of magpies and crows, birds that usually dine on the eggs of the aforementioned song birds. I naively assumed there was some 'natural' explanation for this shift in the aviary population. Rumour is that one of our neighbours is conducting a discreet cull of the less desirable feathered species.
