FARMER, broadcaster and writer Jeremy Clarkson has today lamented the disappearance of so many birds from the countryside around his home in Oxfordshire.
Those he is ceasing to see include red kites, buzzards, owls and yellowhammers.
As springboard for his weekly column in The Sun newspaper, Clarkson refers to this week's controversial twitch on Shetland in which it is alleged that some birders acted against the best interest of a rare lanceolated warbler by deliberately flushing it from the undergrowth.
"These are worrying times, so it's good to hear that in Scotland there is one bird left,"he quips.
