Wales Celebrates Arrival Of First Ever Bald Eagle Chicks


Recommended Posts

Great news indeed.

 

It seems at last, with good protection and the banning of certain pesticides, birds of prey are making a great comeback in the UK.

Don't believe it JR

The problem is actually just as Bad as it always was.

Hen harriers are at an alarming level due to estate owners in the north and west of the UK poisoning birds so their grouse populations remain stable for shooting

Eagles are frequently targeted as are many other birds of pray.

Eagles should be all over the north of England in the upper peninnes,Cheviots,lake district etc but no doubt poisoning has stopped the spread south.

I fully appreciate they aren't native to this country, but I don't have any problem with some being here, though with a bird of this size and hunting capacity, I can see some 'country-folk'  objecting.

I best get rid of all the parakeets on my estate, then !

 

Noisy, but beautiful.

Problem with parakeets is that they should of been eradicated or caught etc years ago,they have been around 40 years now so culling them would be quite hard

 

 

Why bother ?

 

The badger cull starts this week, and that's another complete waste of time to appease ignorant farmers.  (Ooooh - Arrr !)

 

And before anyone has a dig, I am a country-boy born and bred.
