Hello, I live on a small island ,just off the west coast of Scotland, separated from the mainland by a very narrow sound - less than thirty metres in places.Normally the gorse patches on the rough grazing are home to several pairs of breeding linnets; this year there are none. Has anyone else experienced this sharpe decline ?
The BTO status report on the linnet stresses a serious fall in numbers during the 1970s and 80s, however this seemed to be levelling out in more recent years.
