<DIV>After seeing several comments about fewer birds around it became obvious to
me that we are experiencing the same problem in t he east Duluth
area. I attributed some to migration and then the busy birds nesting
and taking care of their young. Except for the hummers almost no birds are
seen at our feeders. </DIV>
<DIV>the spring migration seemed normal but it has been not normal since. No
chickadees, nuthatches, grosbeaks or most of the sparrows and goldfinches.
What is going one. Has the bird flu that has affected our poultry
flocks moved on to the wild birds?</DIV>
