Gidday Birders,
                 I have recently realised that I have seen very few Bee eaters 
over the last few years and am wondering if anyone else has noticed a decline? 
I have to note that I haven't been to my regular spots to see these birds, but 
they do have a tendency to turn up just about anywhere. Any comments 
appreciated.

Also, while I was thinking about this I heard Mike Archer (formerly of the 
Aust. Museum, now UNSW) talking about sparrow declines and the possible link 
with fuel additives. See the link below for a bit more detail. Could these be 
related??
