🌄 The Scottish Lowlands team has just wrapped up the 10th year of spring grey partridge pair surveys at Balgonie Farm! Despite some setbacks (like a gear stick issue!), we counted 40 pairs of grey partridges this spring—similar to the last few years. #GreyPartridge

Today the Agriculture & Rural Communities Bill was passed by Scottish Parliament - and all credit to Eleanor Kay for her tireless work on behalf of Scottish Land & Estates. But today was also significant for another reason: the Scottish Greens said something nice about grouse moors. 🧵⬇️ 1/7
