Swarovski 'scope and carbon fibre tripod stolen from car boot at popular Peak District birding site

Male ring ouzels - target species for many birders in early April 

 

AN alert has been put out via social media after thieves targeted  a site in the Peak District which is regularly visited by ring ouzels.

Over the Bank Holiday, an ace birder-photographer from the Coventry area had a Swarovski 'scope and carbon fibre tripod stolen from the boot of his car.

It is understood the incident occurred at a car park near Hathersage in the Burbage Rocks area in Derbyshire after a lock was forced.

 A nearby car had put its back window put in.

It is thought the equipment might be offered for cash, possibly on an online auction site.
