Many thanks for the info. Obviously I don't get out enough to see much do I, given the large flocks you've seen. Always difficult when work hours coincide with daylight hours in winter.
Yes, the rationale behind "land management" grants here over the years have been quite bizarre. And now we're trying to reinstate bogland! We'll have to see how birds fare here with the latest fashion - wind turbines. Apparently a buzzard flew into the blades of one of the Forss ones today or yesterday.
I understand lapwings, etc., are depleted because land that used to be harvested for hay is now harvested much earlier for sileage, which puts paid to a lot of chicks. Is that right?
