The Hills Are Alight - Again

   
Two photos from Raptor Persecution Scotland taken in an Angus Glen in modern day Scotland, April 2021. The same year we are hosting COP26 in an attempt to persuade the World to protect the climate and our natural resources - our countryside and wildlife, so that we may save ourselves from a climate disaster. 
The first photo shows a range of patches of the heather which have been burned purely to facilitate higher numbers of Red Grouse - to be shot with lead shot, lead being highly poisonous to all life if consumed.
The second photo shows a survivor, probably one of just a few animals and invertebrates that might have survived the fire. It's a Common Lizard and it's tail is burnt black.

I can't wait to ask the prospective new MSP's who may canvass during the next few weeks hoping to persuade me to give them my vote, just when are they going to stop the destruction.

Fire, and by an appropriately named band, click here  do you think it's a ritual performed in remote bothies?


It looks like at least nine different strips on the hillside have been burned



A Common Lizard, if it avoids infection its tail might grow back
