The Sun Online - News: Council: Garden birds too loud:


STUNNED nature-lover Dorothy Berry was ticked off by her local council over noise — from BIRDSONG in her garden.
The official note from environmental health warned of “a complaint alleging nuisance caused by birds singing”.

Great gran Dorothy said last night: “When I saw the letter I thought someone was larking about.

“I have a lovely garden in which the blackbirds sing in the trees and on the aerial of the house.

“But I really don’t see what we can do about that.”

The letter to Dorothy claimed the problem was caused by birdsong “arising from your premises during the early hours”.

It went on: “In the interests of preventing any possible disturbance to nearby residents you may wish to consider if any such noise is likely to cause offence.

“If so, your prompt action in resolving this matter will be appreciated.”

But Dorothy, 65, of Fulham, West London, has not kept birds INSIDE her home since her beloved pet cockatiel died last year.

She added: “We have so much wildlife, it’s so beautiful. The frogs croak in the pond - maybe they are doing that too loudly?”
