The birds are killed by poison and noise. A neighbor applied rat poison on the ground next to my fence that killed most small birds by directly eating the poison. Owls and hawks — very efficient in controlling rodents — died eating poisoned rats.
Bird houses and nests are empty. There is dead silence where a year ago was a bird song and life. The rats are adopting to stronger and stronger poisons and are thriving. When this insanity will stop?
On 4 July came fireworks. Animals sensitive to noise are driven by noise out of their nests and their young die. We need to stop this barbarism, terrorizing animals. Please be sensitive, learn, understand, love.
