pond snails dying

I have common pond snails (Lymnaea) and Ramshorn snails in my pond for years but after this winter only the Ramshorn have survived. I know of 3 other people who have the same problem.  Can anyone solve this for me please.   Thanks Ken

    That reminds me that I haven't seen any snails this year. Must have a poke around tomorrow

    Ken, are you finding dead ones, or have they gone missing?

    I've heard reports that blackbirds will take them from the edges of ponds - any blackbird activity around there?
