Very pleased to see regular updates are being made available to show us the movements of the 2012 sat-tagged Langholm harrier chicks. Well done Cat Barlow, the project officer at the Langholm Moorland Education Project, who is providing these updates on her blog, called ‘Making the Most of Moorlands’ (see here for latest maps).
The latest update (Sept 10th) reveals the male (Barry) has headed south while the female (Blae) has gone north. Things should start to get interesting now…

I’ll make a wee prediction here. Tramsmissions will mysteriously stop when the birds are on managed grouse estates and sat tag malfunction will be cited as the reason. It will have nothing to do with the birds being shot and the sat tags destroyed in an attempt to hide evidence. And once again, nothing will be done about.
