Where've they all gone?

I'm hoping it's just due to the season, ie harvest time in the local woodland and hedgerows, because I haven't seen a single blackbird in my garden for literally weeks. How do I know they don't sneak in when I'm not looking? Because I know they like grapes and some I put out a week ago haven't been touched.

It's also a quiet time for other species as well, the only remotely regular visitors being goldfinches and the occasional dunnock. Same reason?
