for any gamebird,all year round habitat is essential for their survival.people pressure through land clearance for housing,agricultural practises of spraying and edge clearance,as in the ugly bootprint of industralised dairying,means that gamebirds won't survive.we expect a lot,but what are we doing to enhance upland game habitat?in the 40 years i have been shooting, bird habitat has been less and less every year,plus there are now a lot more pesticde toxins in the environment.the future is not good.education would be a start.
