This winter wasn't good for garden birds in SW London. Greenfinch and
Goldfinch numbers were down, no siskins, no sparrows, starlings became
rare and we hardly saw any chaffinches.

I wonder whether other gardeners in the area had the same experience.

The number of birds in your garden will be inversely proportional to the
number of your antisocial neighbours who will not control their 'pet'
cats.
