Where have all the birds gone?
Recently on Papamoa social media sites it was noted that dead small birds, sparrows and wax eyes mainly were being found in numbers on private drive ways in the Dixon Road area. At that time we noticed how few birds there were in our area which is in the Papamoa area closer to Girven Road and there are less birds now. A few minutes ago we noticed a dead wax eye on a neighbours drive. Does anyone know if the appropriate govt department was notified or if there was any scientific answer given. Cats are not the blame for these deaths.
