    Just your average news hound.

    Post Climate change impacts on UK's wintering birds

    News from the RSPB site

    The State of the UK's Birds 2006 report shows that the wintering populations of some species are declining, principally, it is suggested, because of climate change.

    Thanks for that Robert.
    I saw Simon King on TV this morning say that because it's warmer up north now some of the birds are not migrating south.

    Yes - it's not quite the disaster that the normal news reports would like you to believe. It's sad for those who wish to see the birds, but for those that are just not coming this far south, then at least they are not actually disappearing from the earth like other species.

    That's right. They are still there.
    I do hope we will see the Shellducks . I should think so there are a pair here most of the year round and some over at Dawlish
