I have seen a marked decrease in the birds at my feeders over the last few years. Several other people I converse with all say the same thing. I've read that feral cats are really hurting the songbird population in certain areas, others say insecticides and herbicides are the main cause.

Any of you experiencing this (HH is obviously not) bird decrease
