SPURN OBSERVATORY'S PLEA TO SNAPPERS: STOP FLUSHING SHORT-EARED OWLS!

                                            

Do not disturb! Welfare of bird is paramount

SPURN Bird Observatory has this week urged photographers to desist from flushing short-eared owls. 

In a statement posted on social media, it says: "It has come to our attention that short-eared owls are being repeatedly flushed in our area. 

"Needless to say, the observatory does not condone this behaviour. 

"Your flight photographs do not come before the welfare of these birds."
