Manuel Püttmanns, PhD candidate at the University of Göttingen, Germany, writes about his work with skylark chicks, partially funded by the Dick Potts Legacy Fund.  

It's bizarre that anyone should feel ploughing up our heather moorlands is great idea (Grouse shooting is ‘least effective’ use of Scotland's land, December 10).

Government has implemented a hen harrier recovery plan that does address the conflict in England. Ironically, the RSPB is taking the Government to court this week to try and prevent plans to recover a species they claim to champion.

At present, no account is taken of the environmental loss resulting from development, so any attempt to offset is to be welcomed.
