Re: birds on SBH & a relative absence of them, as noted from Amy's recent dearth of sightings. It was a topic for discussion last week with SBH friends, & they explained to me that the success of the island's mosquito abatement program has meant that there are fewer insects, as well as mosquitoes. Birds, as a result, are thought to have less of a food supply . . . resulting in them going elsewhere. Sounds logical.
