I'll add a positive note to this discussion. Bird numbers are great in Hart Co.
They have quit coming to the feeders, as usual for this time of year, but there
are plenty here and at Mammoth Cave.

I also will chime in about birds going bye-bye. Then I live in the city
limits of Lexington, I still have had a pretty diverse group of birds. The ones
that REALLY caught my attention of not being around are the Goldfinches. During
the winter, I had ungodly numbers of Goldfinches and bought one of the huge 20
port Nyjer seed feeders to accommodate them all. Now, I'm lucky to see a pair
every few weeks. The robins love my bird bath, so they are still around. Blue
Jays hang out and keep an eye on the yard for peanuts (I go through 25 lbs
every 2 weeks of in-the-shell peanuts between the Jays and the squirrels).
Other than that....it's the normal House Finches and Sparrows and Mourning
Doves.
