Garden birds too loud says council

A great grandmother 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."



Dorothy Berry, 65, of Fulham, West London, said: "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.”
