News - a few interesting stories

While looking through the online Times this week, it was interesting to see these stories of interest to wildlife lovers.

I talked about reintroduction programmes last year.  This story about White Tailed Sea Eagles reinforces that with some thought proking views.

Skomer is a great place off the West Wales coast to photograph Puffns and other sea bird.  If you are looking for a new job, this could be right up your street.

Following on from my post last year about the death of birds due to wind turbine strikes, scientific research is now showing that the noise effects are having damaging effects to the local breeding bird populations.  Once again these so called inefficient 'green' devices are more problematical than the benefits they provide.
