Yesterday I visited a small family farm. I walked through some of the 30 acres of crops planted and paid for by a small group of people who enjoy game shooting. As we come into spring, the hardest time of year for birds, I looked at these cover crops that teemed with birdlife and I tried to understand how and why Chris Packham and his group of 'bird lovers' want to curtail pheasant shooting once again. The farm in question shoots less than 20% of the pheasant it releases. They also release the increasingly rare grey Partridge of which they harvested (or shot if you prefare) less than 5%. Now that game crop and the surrounding hedgerows contained bullfinches, yellowhammer, flocks of long-tailed t**s and I even saw my favourite goldfinches on the weeds in amongst the crop.
It's strange that the small shoot was recently attacked by masked hunt saboteurs /monitors. They claimed to be 'saving animals' yet what did they save? They claimed the 'shooters' were all 'toffs' yet I met only working class men and women. They claimed that only pheasants existed on the land and everything else was killed, yet I saw a greater variety of birdlife than in any 'rewilded' area or local nature reserve.
I'm sure these Packham fans really really love animals. But perhaps there is a difference between protection and conservation.
