Hello world from North Alabama, USA
When I was living in Lamar County, Alabama, many years ago, we had several
coveys of quail.
60 years later, the same area has 0 amounts of these birds. The area I live
in had birds all around
for hunters to kill the limit each time they hunted.
I am not saying Neonics are responsible for the demise. The main question
is, if not neonics,
then what is causing the problem??? Don't see as many other birds
population dropping......
