The populations of the world's common birds are declining as a result of continued habitat loss, a global assessment has warned.
The survey by BirdLife International found that 45% of Europe's common birds had seen numbers fall, as had more than 80% of Australia's wading species.
The study's authors said governments were failing to fund their promises to halt biodiversity loss by 2010.

I enjoy reading this little post! I definitely loved every little bit of it, specially the part about "commons birds" and the awesome percent about it. I have this blog in my bookmarked, each entry has been increasing my interest in this matter.
