Fwd: [Raptor_conservation] photographers threaten endangered Hen Harriers in Holland

["" <>]

"Both nests had been the focus of attention of

   photographers, as visible from the trampling of vegetation"

Do you know something that was not in the text Carl? 

It seems it is just not journalists that put 1 & 1 together to make 3 ;-).

However chances are we will marvel at some wonderful close-up footage by David Attenborough  & his professional mates on a Sunday night in the future. 
"How do they get those shots?" 
All the while  maintaining the divisions; Twitcher good, Professional photographer good, Amateur photographer bad..
