For WHO's birders
"I thought you might like this video.
It's a compilation of different birds singing. Beautiful photography. If you expand the 'title' under the video it gives a list of species and the times they pop up in the video. Most of the species are familiar to us in the UK, but there are some 'exotics' (the cranes - wow, what a noise!) It was filmed in Belarus. The guy has a channel you can subscribe to. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it and maybe it'll take your mind off you-know-what for a few blessed minutes."

"A swan crash landed into our works car park yesterday afternoon, made a bit of a noise. Two others landed and just looked at it. All three had rings on their legs. 20 mins later they had gone."

Yep. The comedy-squeaking-wheel song of the great tit is very noisy in my garden today. As well as the fluting song of goldfinches.

Re: For WHO's birders
So you condone the killing of protected species by Staff owners like you. Wonderful. I'm sure you have some delightful friends.

"Boasting ? Far from it, i've condoned it. We got the dog as a rescue, he is brilliant with people and is the perfect pet and wouldn't swap him for anything else. If anyone is to blame it was me for not having him on a lead. And don't talk to me about protected species as your nationals kill and eat them and your digging a dog out for it, oh the irony"

Re: For WHO's birders
"Yes. One good reason for having cats is they keep the vermin in check. Not so sure what your reason for having a Staff is now that you have come on here boasting about how it has killed a badger, which happens to be a protected species."

Re: For WHO's birders
"Maybe i should have had him on the lead, but i like to go out early doors so he can stretch his legs without many people walking the dogs. I certainly don't condone people training their pets to kill other animals. Despite the bad press, Staffy's aren't bred to be killers, they are great family pets, its the owner that turns them into vicious cunts."

"Years ago my family had issues with badger baiters, fucking nasty trespassing scummy cunts who don't give a fuck about their dogs or the badger. (NOT accusing Kenzo of.this, don't know the facts of course.)"
Re: For WHO's birders
"LMH - Totally unscathed, i didn't actually see him do it as he was off the lead and shot off over to it, just heard the commotion, maybe it was already injured or something, i'm not sure, but it was making a racket, not nice to see."

Re: For WHO's birders
A healthy badger isn't going to go down without a scrap. How did the dog fare? I wonder if the badger was either very very old or perhaps pre injured by a car.

"Morning , Willtell, Yes,it's an old (1993) 900 Trophy...it's a lovely bike to ride but a bastard to start if it's hot...I can't shut it off if I'm stopping for a paper - it just won't start ! give it 30 minutes and it's fine again. As someone said ""Bike British,you might not get there but it's fun trying"""

"Is that a Triumph motor cycle Aalborg? I have a Sprint ST1050 I hardly ever use. 2008 model with all the luggage kit and I only use it for long distant rides to moto GP events mostly. Covid has put paid to that but last outing was to Italy at Misano. Only has 28,500miles on clock."
Re: For WHO's birders
"My dog killed a badger on his walk on Sunday Morning, after looping back about 45 mins later, came across it on the way back to find it being pulled apart by half a dozen Ravens, never realised they were that big up close."
