I usually consign Linklater's tirades straight to chip wrapping (though they do spoil the taste a bit), but this one may well give RSPB membership recruitment a nice boost..... http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2012/aug/12/why-claws-are-out-for-royal-society-for-protection-of-birds
Every day a little more irate about bird of prey persecution, and I have a cat - Got a problem with that?

Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Landowner or not he does seem to be a general stirrer,it is unfortunate that it is the tripe like he seems to write that sells papers not good news stories,I suppose in some ways we are to blame for buying the papers that print such rubbish.

Birding is for everyone no matter how good or bad we are at it,enjoy it while you can
That's pretty much why I don't buy newspapers. I don't know why people have this appetite for other people's hatreds and intolerances.......it's so pointless.
