Is there a definite date for the arrival of the new hide? Will it have windows in the back for watching the hedges and transmitter field?

Just signed it, John. I would've signed it earlier but, for some reason, the firewall at work blocked it. Absolutely sickened that this kind of indescriminate plundering of migrants still goes on in some countries. :C

Phil Andrews · Sep 26, 2011

Not yet Paul - will have side windows as per the existing but no rear windows.

However I expect that we will be doing more hedgerow management work to lower and rejuvenate the hedgeline (similar to the stretch behind the hide undertaken in the Spring) during the forthcoming work parties which will improve views into the transmitter field.

On the flashes this evening one G.B.B. Gull was with the B.H.G.,s till 5.15pm then flew off east.( Had been seen by another observer earlier in the day.)

Cheers Glenn - an unusual sighting for this time of year; was it an adult?

Phil

g.h.1 · Sep 26, 2011

Yes Phil, it was an adult but did not look in the best of health, though fit enough to fly.

I knew this kind of thing went on in Malta but was unaware that certain despicable individuals in Cyprus were also responsible for the indiscriminate
slaughter of birds. Needless to say I have added my name to the petition.:C:C:C
