Hi

The Pesticides Forum in the UK monitors the numbers of birds on farmland.
 See their 2013 report here:

http://www.pesticides.gov.uk/Resources/CRD/Migrated-Resources/Documents/P/23924.52.1PesticidesintheUK2013.pdf

This demonstrates that there has generally been a long term decline in
birds on farmland in the UK.  Neonicotinoids may or may not be adding to
the problems now, but the decline predates their use.by decades
