A recent story in the Bristol
Herald Courier asked bird lovers to take down birdbaths and feeders because
there is something killing songbirds and they don’t know what it could be.
I am not all that smart, but when
I see all the lawns in this area without a single weed, without pesky bugs
because they spray chemicals on their yards. These chemicals are poison, and
when they apply these chemicals, they suggest you not let your animals outside.
Poor old birds can’t read; they walk on the treated lawns and eat worms that
are now poison and die.
In Vietnam, they sprayed chemicals to kill all the vegetation, and as a result, thousands of us are victims of Agent Orange.
