SIR - Like Gail Crumpton in last Friday's Gazette (A callous shooting of clever songbirds) I too saw the robins flying about the hills at Wyevale - long before nesting time.

What puzzles me is that in an environment filled with so many so-called 'experts', no one had the forethought to net the birds and relocate them before they had the chance to breed.

The bird-brains were not the robins here but they paid the ultimate price. Wyevale can do without my custom also.
