Although the main focus of this blog is raptor persecution in Scotland, we will also be documenting incidents in other parts of the UK.
In early March 2010, a young goshawk was killed in Bransdale, North Yorkshire. An x-ray revealed the bird had been shot. A police investigation is underway.
According to a 2009 report by the RSPB, North Yorkshire has the worst record for raptor persecution incidents in England.
