"Governments Den" a masterpiece that shouldn't need to have been made

   

A brilliant parody of the case for grouse shooting, should be shown in schools, universities, terrestrial TV, Netflix, hell, show it to everyone!

"Governments Den", the case for Grouse shooting in Scotland, click here for video  it's just over seven minutes and worth every one of them

Some of the comments left.....

Excellent stuff.  Oor wee Nicola Sturgeon has to shoulder the blame for NOT doing anything! She could stop it instantly!

Excellent format, clarity,factual..Shared with emphasis on the 'Cruelty & destruction aspect on an industrial scale' ..Persecution, poisoning, trapping,shooting for fun, moor burn must end!

Keep up the good fight especially  against those privileged with vested interests ££££ ! 

Well done. I still cannot believe that there is to be a simulation grouse shooting experience in Edinburgh's new St. James Centre. Utterly revolting they are branding it as a Scottish thing and sincerely embarrassing for Edinburgh.

Wigeon Hide with a strawberry blond!

   
Some long range photos from a walk down to the Wigeon Hide at Montrose Basin. The hide is around 100 metres back from the edge of the mud where the wader flocks roost at high tide. There were a few Fieldfares and Redwings on the way along the track and a large flock of Goldfinches with a few Linnets in front of the hide.

A different Dunlin, a strawberry blond, of sorts, click here for video  The previously posted one was almost all white

I like this one of a Redwing sitting atop a very large tree near the Mains of Dun car park. It was in a shaft of sunlight with a dark rain cloud in the background

One of at least two juvenile Grey Plovers in front of the Wigeon Hide, there were adults further out on the mud (we were a bit late getting there)

Probably one of the pair I'd seen not far away at Miss Erskines Bank, today it was south of the Wigeon Hide

Very unusual for a Carrion Crow to let me get close, it was sheltering behind a grass bank out of the wind and didn't want to move

The view from the track looking over a tattie field and across the Basin towards Montrose. The white things on the surface of the field are potatoes which is puzzling me so I'll ask an expert when I next see him
