Okay, But How Do the Lesser Ones Fare?

It seems “[at] least one of Britain’s birds appears to be coping well as climate change alters the availability of a key food.”

I am relieved. Read the BBC story, “Great tits cope well with warming.”

  1. Lexi’s Nature Notes

    On my workshop balcony we now have blue tits and great tits where once we had gangs of sparrows – enough to attract a sparrow hawk one year.

    Right now, I have blackbirds singing beautifully. I put out any vine weevil grubs I catch, and sultanas to encourage them.

    I have mice out there too, pesky things. Some plants they eat to the roots.

  2. Cats would work on the mice. And the birds.

    Any snakes? Might be a bit of a problem on a balcony….
