Brilliant work by the RSPB team at #Geltsdale #Cumbria in helping these chicks to fledge.

Otherwise, this is completely appalling and the criminal killing has to stop. #HenHarriers @northpennines.bsky.social #CumbriaPolice

Despite 70+ years of legal protection, and over £1 million of public money wasted on years of pantomime ‘partnerships’ and a sham #BroodMeddling trial, #HenHarriers are STILL being killed illegally by many within the UK #grouse shooting industry.

Why are these criminal acts not being prosecuted?
Over past 5y, record numbers of #HenHarriers killed or ‘gone missing’ says @RSPB.
Most have occurred on/near grouse moors in north England.

Good news, but…

‘… despite this local success, the species’ recovery across England continues to face significant challenges, including illegal persecution, changes in land use and habitat loss.’
