In our frequent visits to the UK we haven't noticed much decline in  
hedgerows, probably because there are quite strict regulation governing their  
removal

Hi Steve & All,          Dec 16, 2015
    It seems odd that there was no mention of the obvious;  loss of 
hedgerows by consolidation of fields and crop specialization which  would surely 
imply for some species not only loss of habitat but  habitat fragmentation.

Continuing an earlier thread, this short Guardian article  summarizes a 
robust increase in a few, but drastic decline in many species,  in UK.  Causes 
unknown but pesticides and climate change among suspects  fingered.
