Lead has been poisoning our wildlife and communities for decades – but now we have a chance to turn things around. With a crucial review into lead ammunition finally at an end, will you join me in calling on @SteveReedMP to help make lead history?

It took five days, but the Pallid Harrier was back on the bridge at Warham Greens (part of the @HolkhamEstate NNR) last night, to the delight of another twenty visiting birders (digi-scoped photo taken from the public viewpoint). Continues to roost much further away in saltmarsh.

@GlenOrioleglen The Harrier in your photo is a juvenile Hen Harrier (note the five-fingered wing tip). She has very similar plumage to the ad female Pallid, though a much more obvious pale collar, and bulkier jizz and has caused some confusion for visitors particularly in the afternoon light.

We are rightly outraged by ongoing large scale migrant bird trapping in eg Cyprus, Malta, etc. However it seems to be acceptable that I can stand at my local marsh, a NNR and SSSI, and watch four gunmen blasting migrant ducks and geese out of the sky and that’s somehow ok? Why?

@BirdingBeijing The Norfolk bird was first seen on 5th as well I believe. Amazing coincidence.

@ChrisGPackham @NFUtweets Same on most farms in North Norfolk (critical area for tired and hungry arriving winter thrushes, etc). The hedges on my local farm have been cropped like that for the second time this year (spring and autumn). Trying to work out why farmland birds are declining so fast 🙄
