Rusty Blackbirds are becoming scarce. I have a theory about this, I think it has something to do with genetically modified grain.
Blackbirds like grain fields. If there is anything toxic in GMO crops, it will show up in blackbirds, just like DDT showed up in Robins that ate earthworms contaminated with the stuff.
So.... Is there any link between the Rusty decline and GMO crops? It is a perfect question for hobby birdwatchers to keep in mind. or better yet, band some birds that have been feeding on GMO fields.
Get the picture?
