[QUOTE="pratincol, post: 3231341, member: 65801"] Sorry Peter try this one below!If it doesn't work go to post 85 where there is a link-that one definitely does function. This story gets worse the deeper you dig.If that statement about her specifically telling the RSPB- [B]before[/B] her sad demise -she didn't want the land built upon, then it is appalling. Look on Google Earth and you get a picture of how this housing estate will affect the urbanisation of this area. There is a good thread on the Birds of Prey forum about Hen Harriers disappearing.I have suggested some very practical advice how the RSPB,gamekeepers,shooters and the land owners can possibly sort out this problem.It is not my idea but one that works perfectly well in Langholm where I believe, five pairs breed.The gamekeepers simply leave dead chickens on feeding posts.The male Hen harriers take them and leave the gamebirds alone. There is no need then for the RSPB to waste their money,time and effort spending weeks watching nests whilst the males are killed elsewhere.
