Starting our grey squirrel campaign with a @goodnaturetraps A18. Sparsholt College game students impressed at how easy it was to deploy. Time will tell whether it reduces the population.

Great day to be out counting farmland birds with Sparsholt College Gamekeeping students as part of the #bfbc

A week in Teesdale with Sparsholt College game students looking at grouse moor Mgt and it didn't rain - must be a first in 30 years!

Eagerly awaiting the arrival of the guns on the sparsholt game students shootday.

Beautiful morning for some wildfowl ID with Sparsholt College game students Beaulieu

Another stunning day at Peppering looking at farm habitat management for wild grey partridge with Charlie Mellor and Sparsholt College Gamekeeping students

Good to see Bright Seeds pheasant & finch mix still providing cover and feed for farmland birds into February. Sparsholt College Gamekeeping students impressed with all the cover crop options on show.

A frosty morning to be out stalking with Sparsholt College Gamekeeping students making the bracken as noisy as cornflakes. Better luck this evening with one more fallow doe added to the cull.

Yesterday climbed Ingleborough but very disappointed with lack of bird life - no #curlew, #goldies, #peewits. No coincidence that no #grouse either. TheNPMG NYMMO

Beautiful morning for checking the traps with Sparsholt College game students.

Yes its all a part of the Pest & Predator Control Unit x.com/GameSparsholt/…

A range of traps are used with Sparsholt College game students but the DOC from Perdix Wildlife Supplies has got to be the most humane for squirrels. Will be good to field trial some @goodnaturetraps for squirrels when they're available Game&WildConTrust

Great to have Mike Swan of the Game&WildConTrust delivering Fox snaring best practice training to Sparsholt College game students and apprentices.

Fantastic weather for siting this #sansam highseat in our Forestry Commission DCL with Sparsholt College game students. Next doe season they’ll get to use it as part of their #deer #stalking assessments.
