Plenty here is south wales too i hear the green finch all the time and so far have spotted a few gold finch feeding off whats left of last years thistle seeds on the banks so there seem to be plenty about I would not say any less than normal here ,but i have seen a big increase in the buzzards about the place they have been stalking the pigeons on the local bridge not sure if they are after chicks or eggs lol

 

Buzzards are doing really well. When I was a kid I knew we'd got to 'the South West' when we started seeing them in Dorset. In the last 10 years or so they've made it right along the south of the country: I regularly see groups of four in West Sussex and they're resident on the Kent/Surrey borders so must be across Kent by now. Mostly to do with the rabbit population isn't it?

Yes you are probabley right there about the rabbit population they are on the increase too since the myxomatosis died down i have seen less and less rabbits affected by that over the past ten years and being close to a golf course that is riddled in rabbits that would explain why im seeing so many more buzzards around here its due to the increase in food supply lol :001_smile:
