- Working closely with @EnvAgency we carried out a thorough investigation into damage to the River Lugg. We welcome today’s sentence and hope this is a stark warning to others that we will take the strongest action to uphold protections for our wildlife.Today, landowner John Price was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment for the destruction of 1.5km of the protected River Lugg. Together with @NaturalEngland, we welcome this sentence and will continue to work hard to restore the health of our rivers. 📰: gov.uk/government/new…

00:00 - Birds are still ‘romancing the hedgerows’ 🌹❤️ & many still have chicks to feed. All wild birds are protected, intentionally harming birds or nests whilst in use/being built is illegal. Pls leave hedges & scrub/bush cuts til after August & check before you cut.
