I now live in Scotland and my passion is watching and photographing birds.
On the right hand side of the blog there is a fairly comprehensive list of Bird Photographers from all over the world.
Sadly it all comes down to money. I'm not well up on the background over in NI is it sheep farming or game interests that are anti-raptor some other set of commercial interest?
The shooting community is probably alive with gossip about the perpetrator. Hopefully he will be exposed. With any luck the corpse will be found and provide proof of the crime.
Its not right! Uneducated people with guns! We need better education and the law has to be stronger or inroduction of birds like these will become highy expensive and near impossible..
