Congratulations Ruth and thanks to the sponsors! Keep up the great work!
It is a tremendous tribute to your integrity and love for our wildlife.
We all owe you (and your sponsors) a huge debt of gratitude.
On my FB group we have been posting your reports since 2014 – more and more sadly every year
Grateful thanks for both the original initiative and the ensuing, in depth, persistence and provision of information. Where would we be without you spreading the word? Very well done and much appreciated.
We in Animal Interfaith Alliance concur with all the preceding comments and also thanks you, Ruth, for the excellent work you do.
Congratulations Ruth and thank you; I have read every blog posted and most of the comments over the last 16 years!
Thank you for all you do.
A very happy 16th birthday Ruth. Gre
Thank you!
Thank you for all that you do Ruth and the worthy sponsors . The above remarks have said it all but we so appreciate your tireless work
Ruth you are truly indefatigable.
Thank you.
Thank you Ruth and your sponsors for all the outstanding work you do. Your calm, intelligent responses to the greenwash spouted by the shooting lobbyists is a credit to you. You are a true powerhouse!
Brilliant,thanks.
Thank you for all your efforts in this matter. It is to be hoped that before much longer there will be no need for you to continue this work. I know that may be too optimistic but we can only hope and do our best to stop the killings.
Thankyou Ruth, team and sponsors for standing up for Nature and helping to protect our wonderful raptors. I am hoping one day that hen harriers and others will be free from persecution and will be plentiful for us all to see and appreciate.
