Great to see the Biodiversity Action Plan launched, so much positive action for biodiversity over the past few years providing momentum for impact that will arise from the actions in this plan. All Island Climate & Biodiversity Research Network and Co-Centre for Climate + Biodiversity + Water both mentioned by Minister & will contribute to actions

Knepp has sparrowhawk, goshawk, 5 species of owl (4 breeding), does not control foxes, magpies, carrion crows etc yet has high densities of songbirds. Could this be a result of the dense structure of bushes caused by grazing? More conservation videos at youtube.com/@bill_sutherla…
