Who is this handsome wader? #WaderWeek

It's a Curlew (or 'whaup')!

Scotland is home to c.15% of the world's Curlews but they are in trouble and suffering from huge declines - now IUCN Red List globally near threatened.

🔴 Warning on overhaul of Scottish agricultural subsidies as scrapping climate targets 'deeply concerning' scotsman.com/news/environme…

Farming is Scotland’s second biggest source of climate emissions, and a major cause of wildlife loss.

A growing number of nature-friendly farmers and crofters are working hard to change this, but they need to be better supported.

Email your MSP:

Alpine Blue Sow Thistles are favoured by deer and survive today in only a handful of locations that remain inaccessible to them.
