The wildlife survey of the new house also includes this fox who apparently makes regular circuits of the area.

"Look up, listen, and be very concerned. #Birds are vanishing – and their crisis is our crisis - More than 40,000,000 birds have disappeared from UK’s skies since 1970: a trend that imperils the network that gives us life"

The #UK has lost 40,000,000 birds since 1970 and #Europe as a whole has lost 600,000,000 birds since 1980. The British figures, especially for farmland species such as skylark and lapwing, have long been the worst of any country in the region. The North American continent, meanwhile, but especially the #US, has seen #avian populations fall by almost a third since 1970, losing a cumulative 3,000,000,000 birds."
