I had not realized that even Mallards are raised to be released for the hunters. It must be a real challenge for them to kill birds that don't even possess the instincts and avoidance skills of a wary wild bird! What bold, skillful hunters they are with their high-powered scopes and other accoutrements. Now, as regards shorebirds, I don't recall ever having seen a Purple Sandpiper in one of your posts, yet I would have thought they occurred there. The biggest concentration I ever saw was during a visit to Wales one year - on Anglesey to be precise, in the harbour where the ferry leaves for Ireland.David M.
