Filmed on 2nd January 2012 in Camborne

Monitoring suggests a severe decline in the UK House Sparrow population, recently estimated as dropping by 71 per cent between 1977 and 2008 with substantial declines in both rural and urban populations. Whilst the decline in England continues, Breeding Bird Survey data indicates recent population increases in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
