Just noted in the January edition of R S P B Magazine
that, in different parts of England, there have been at
least 10 Red Kite Shootings reported. Big glorious birds
of hawkish appearance, but despite that appearance,
are almost totally scavengers. !! There are times when I

Well..as I was saying....just got back from river and the fourth dead swan was floating around. Chatting to a local boatyard owner he said he had also seen a couple of dead swans going out on the tide about 2 miles along the river. Odd's are they came from my spot.
I phoned DEFRA again and the man said that someone else had phoned in 10 minutes previous...maybe something might happen, but he didn't ask for exact location....strange.
One thing I was surprised to see...another swan showing a lot of interest in the dead swan...you can make up your own reasons why. Pecking and pulling, going away and turning and coming back in a display mode. I have never seen more than one dead swan in any previous year...something is a foot.

Local TV report this am yet another barbaric attack on our wild life. A crossbow bolt in a Swan’s neck in a park in Cheltenham - it’s not too well at the moment. Probably being looked after at the West Hatch Wildlife Rescue Centre. Unbelievable behaviour.

Is it a glitch in the system.....when I scan over the subjects on here I only go in if it says that there is a NEW posting. Once viewed the NEW tag disappears, but not now on my PC.
Just a waste of time going over posts I've already read.
Was hoping for some brightness today, but it looks as gloomy as yesterday, have to get out!
