I was looking for this wonderful quote "never heard the solitary whistle of curlew on a summer noon without feeling the elevation of soul” Robert Burns But also found this,😣 I know that so many of our birds are threatened and I look at this so often it is one of my main focuses but somehow this news passed me by ... According to the @wwtworldwide Britain holds a quarter of the world’s curlew population and the @RSPB_love_nature report that the population has at least halved and in some places dropping by 81% raising awareness can help hopefully 🙏 but more can be read more at RSPB http://bit.ly/2YOpvXY or Wildfowl & wetland trust http://bit.ly/2HHxYGw #curlewcrisis Everywhere I look there seems to be sad discoveries of diminishing species, what can we do? What do you do?
