Do you mean that literally? As in no birds what so ever? If so, that's just so incredible sad.

    I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic, sure I've seen some pigeons and heard a bird here and there. But sitting on my balcony, I just hear silence (and some traffic) where birdsong used to almost drown out traffic noise. Two trees in front of my home always had several bird nests, nothing this year. I haven't seen a single sparrow or woodpecker which used to be common. And I'm barely seeing any insects on places that used to be full of them so I guess there's just nothing left to eat.

    I was serious, I'm sorry if I came across as rude.

    Thank you for sharing this sad news. The reason I asked is that I live in Europe as well, and if things are this severe in Central Europe, than pretty soon the shitshow will come for the rest of us as well. Luckily birds and insects are still going strong here in western parts of Norway, for now that is. Still we're seeing more jellyfish in the fjords and less fish than before. We're also experiencing more ticks than earlier years. Things are looking bleak indeed.
