BBC Wales headline-
Decline in curlew birds as farming 'destroys habitat'
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-47980207
They then start the article by stating that -"The number of curlews in Wales has dropped by 80% since 1990 with farming practices partly to blame, a charity has said."
But what most will pick up on is the headline that farming has destroyed the habitat not that it is partly to blame, blatant farmer bashing again!
On the BBC Wales news last night the National Trust spokesperson did state that predation was also a factor but no mention from what and was not discussed.
With the wretched Welsh Government Minister Lesley Griffiths still to publish any findings in to her Farming after Brexit consultation and the fact that she prefers Environmental payments open to all landowners including allotments, I can't help but think that the RSPB ar now upping the ante to try and get more influence and bigger payments for themselves.
