August has the largest bird populations than any other time of year with all new young on the wing. I used to enjoy flocks of dispersing juvs coming through plus anything can fly by, but yesterday there was nothing at all!

My last effort in and around around the garden (23-Aug) produced 31 species - I must be lucky here.

That’s true, but my experience is that they do a good job of keeping themselves hidden, at least inland. If you encounter a large mixed flock of small birds, great but while it may be possible to see anything, it’s also equally possible to see nothing.
