Birdies in Peril

I don't know how much faith to put in this, but I know that introduced critters like rats and housecats have made huge dents in many bird populations. This much is proven. I was happy to see that a few endangered birds are bouncing back, that is truly great news.

Just to be clear, I love birds of nearly all kinds and have gone so far as to hunt their predators (the four-legged feline kind) without restraint in certain areas where such critters were causing problems in the bird population.

People, spay/neuter your cats and keep them inside unless there is a damn good reason to have them outdoors. They are an ecological menace in many places if great care is not taken.
