[QUOTE="504RP, post: 1716742, member: 40335"] I read something about the sparrow population haveing dissipated by nearly half world wide, can't remember for sure but I think the article mentioned other species of birds also dieing off. That is something that happens without anyone noticing it really. As a boy I had BB guns and pellet guns and was always shooting sparrows, field larks, starlings, blue jays, got a many of whoopings for shooting Martin's off of my Mother's Martin houses. Got in trouble for shooting Malkin birds and red birds. Don't see Robin migrations anymore. Duck and goose population has declined alot too. That started happening back in the 70's. Was talking with Phil Robertson (Duck commander) at a hunting Expo back in the early 90's. His thoughts were because of all the refuges being bilt for water fowl back then were holding the ducks thus causing them not to have to migrate like normal. At that time I thought he was right. But I am not so sure at what is happening to the waterfowl is caused from population decline also So i can really see a difference in the populations of all of thoes species by comparing now to back then.
