Maybe its temporary. My sparrows, hundreds of them, disappear for six
weeks,
from mid January to the end of February every year. They will be back
next week. I am told they mass-up somewhere to find mates. Anyone else
experience this? I'm on the Lincolnshire coast.

Interesting. My local flock of about a dozen is still busy in the hedge
here (on the very edge of town in Gloucestershire): I don't think
they've been away any time during the winter.
