    Hailstorm
    Hi ... At a meeting tonight about other
    matters I was asked where all the birds went during the recent Sydney
    hailstorm and why were there no corpses. I am not sure ... any
    ideas?

    Not sure - although I did see a  photo of a very battered looking seagull in one of
    the newspapers.  Also one article made mention of the workload WIRES
    (Wildlife rescue service) was under with injured birds from the
    storm.
