No mention of increased runoff in the uplands due to burning.
A poor response.

A deeply disappointing government response to @wildjustice.bsky.social’s petition on banning driven grouse shooting, that even cites bullshit stats from the shooting industry

A cool find in my garden, a sycamore #aphid parasitized by
Dyscritulus planiceps, a specialist braconid parasitoid #wasp. The larva feeds in the body of the aphid and then pupates under the aphid in a flat disc. Currently the only record in Scotland and one of only 11 records in the UK
