I'm struggling to think of a possible motive?

Boredom of a brain-dead Tw*t ?
Grudge against someone or maybe RSPB or the like?
Rogue, misguided fisherman?

any other ideas?

so the first of my offerings probably translates to this one.

either way, let's hope he slips and said gun impales his ar*e before firing. If I thought it would help I would happliy supply the banana skin.

It seems some people don't need a reason. This is what happened near to me. :-C

Castrate him, his family and all associates of him - eventually we will rid the scum from the earth

They'd argue that this would contradict his/ her human rights. I've always felt you have to be human to have human rights in the first instance though! This truly is unbelievable! The shooting I mean.

It would be nice if they could catch the brainless moron that did this but sadly that is very unlikely.

That's really so sad, such a beautiful bird and still relatively rare in this country.

Just hope it wasnt part of a breeding pair and there are chicks going hungry now.

Lost for words...........................

Was up in Highland birding a few weeks ago and saw a number of BT Divers on quite small lochs near the road in the north west - not too far from Lock Gowan in fact. Not many people about in that region, particularly I would think earlier in the year.

Very very sad
