| | | Starling Roosts & the Law - Help! Hi
Wonder if anyone can help me.
We have a large Starling Roost in a front garden down the road (urban location - 1/2 mile from fields) in Corfe Mullen. It's in a stand of Bamboo in the front garden of a small block of flats.
The number of starlings roosting in it has risen dramatically in the last week or so and the neighbours are complaining! (why????) They have asked the flats to chop the roost down and apparently they have agreed.
Is there anything I can do to save the roost? During the rest of the year it is used by sparrows and starlings (a few hundred). At the moment it seems to be 1000's.
Not sure how I stand with this one. I know starlings are in decline elsewhere, but are their roosts protected? I have no idea...
I'm going to have to move quickly on this one. Help...
Thanks
