GOOD news! RSPB Geltsdale has secured even more vital habitat for wildlife, forever. 💚

That means space for Red Squirrels, Ring Ouzels, Hen Harriers & more to flourish, healthier rivers for Otters & amphibians, and farmland buzzing with life...

Great work 👏
Great to see swift action taken by #UKPowerNetworks to deploy bird deflectors here, I thank them for their speedy response & care. Going forwards we need to work closely with powerline operators to ensure lines are strategically placed away from high-risk waterbird collision areas. 2/2

Lines of fir trees or nesting Curlew?
Poignant picture.
How long will these birds nest here, once trees start to grow?
