Hen Harrier Action - plans for 2022
Young Filmmaker Challenge
We will be running a competition for young filmmakers later in the year. We plan to launch it in September, with a deadline for entries of March 2023.
Hen Harrier Day
This year we focused on participating in Wild Justice’s Hen Harrier Fest on 24 July, including announcing the winners of the Young Wild Writers competition.
Walk for Harriers
The very first Walk for Harriers took place on the traditional Hen Harrier day weekend and was a free organised walk onto a typical driven grouse moor. Talks were given by experts in their field about raptor persecution and upland reform and we also pointed out and discussed the various management techniques to maximise grouse for shooting seen along the way including muirburn and various crow and mammal traps. An enjoyable and informative day was had by all.
Young Wild Writer Competition
In 2022 we continued our popular writing competition. Details of the winning entries are here.
Nest cameras
We are hoping to bring you live streamed footage from a hen harrier nest in 2023, but in the meantime why not enjoy this live recorded footage from our barn own nest cam from 2022...
