April Birdwatch, in shops now, is a wildlife crime special with a guest editorial from Chris Packham, an article on wilful blindness by Ruth Tingay, an account of bird killing in the Lebanon by the Committee Against Bird Slaughter and an article on the work of Birders Against Wildlife Crime by Rob Sheldon. My monthly column talks about what legal changes might lie ahead post-Brexit.
And there are all the regular features and columns. Who wouldn’t want to read Lucy McRobert and Bill Oddie? There are book reviews (including of this book) and advice on optics and identification. I’ve never seen a White-billed Diver (or have I, without realising?) but I’m better equipped now. And thee is a comment on how birds coped with the beast from the east too.
In shops now.
And while we are talking about wildlife criime, just remember that Defra is soft on wildlife crime and soft on the causes of wildlife crime so please get your friends all to sign Gavin Gamble’s e-petition calling for a ban on driven grouse shooting.
