Do the birds know something?? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 34342830 Canada 02/13/2013 06:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Strange about the other post as well that stated Robins and Starlings together. Starlings are very preditory and harrass other birds like Robins. Its kind of like Black and White. Sorry it is. My Blackbirds came back a week ago and are starting to nest under the roof again. Way to early. 2 mnths too early. It has been quite mild here in Southwestern BC. I have quite a few Large Shepherds. A puppy litter right now and visitors to the kennel. All the dogs start barking for no reason and then start howling. This has been going on since last Thursday. Been happening on average 5 times a day. Yesterday was the worst. 12 times. They only usually howl once a night when the coyotes do their sing song. Not like this. Its crazy. The ones that usually like to stay outside want in and the insiders and couch potatoes want out. Its been a revolving door. They are bitchy with each other also. Seem low energy and sleeping alot. Me Too. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 16858103 United States 02/13/2013 07:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm not so much rattled by the flocks as I am about last summer. I typically would go through a bag of birdseed every week. I still have the one bag I bought last summer. Many migratory species where I live simply did not show up. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2169888 Indiana same way. Never really seen anything except a few sparrow out in the yard (and a goose or two from the pond) |

No one feeds them either because it is VERY ghetto here. So not sure why they stayed. |

Mass animal deaths are everywhere. Every year I have less and less barn swallows. Its really sad. I used to have 40 pairs and the last 3 years I have 5-6 pairs and last year only 2 pairs. Makes me sick. |

One year they build them taller than anytime before - and we all wonder why...!? This was in 1995 and later that year Norway was hit by a "500 year flood". All the swans nests did just fine through it. Don't underestimate the birds! Last Edited by Norse Viking on 02/13/2013 09:28 PM RIP. Berserk |

But no geese this time, or sea gulls. Quoting: wishiwas I think I came through the area at a later time today, so don't know what came through while I wasn't in the car. Ive seen a ton of seagulls in my area recently! Im in the foothills of NC! It's not abnormal to see them...just many more recently! HAHA! Same in Greensboro area. |
