Now that it's Spring and the wildlife has started this years new breeding season, it's prompted the morons and other idiots to crawl out of the woodwork where they've kept their alchohol soaked heads. They make the annual pilgrimage to the heaths and moorlands of Caithness and Sutherland where they ritually throw down lighted matches and casually walk (stagger) away, the pleasure they get from watching these beautifull moorlands go up in smoke, along with all the wildlife living on it knows no bounds. They get extra pleasure when the fire engines turn up and the firemen struggle to douse the huge fires. They know they are safe, the Police won't do anything about it even though they know who the culprits are, after all, they've been getting away with it for years and their fathers before them ??? They've done a magnificent job, nearly every bit of decent heather along the noth coast of Sutherland has been burnt down to the peat and destroyed many rare bird nesting sites. Why should they care if it will take years or never for the heather to grow back and of course they've managed to get rid of the Hen Harriers, Merlins, Short-eared Owls, various Waders, Larks and Pipits into the bargain.
