Re: Scops owl in Oxfordshire

my expereince is that there is a minority of unthinking idiots in most past time be it photography, birdwatching or whatever , that give the rest a bad name. I certainly wasnt having a go at twitchers per se just those who think that their tick is more important than the welfare of the bird. this goes equally for any other field including photographers, and the bimble brained botanist I met today who was cutting orchid so that he could "take them home to identify"
