Wild Britain on a wing and a prayer


A sobering article in today's Times newspaper about the 50-year decline in British wildlife species.
More than half the species in Britain have declined over the past 50 years, according to a comprehensive report on the state of the country's wildlife. The State of Nature report, compiled by 25 conservation bodies, charts the gradual desolation of many recognisable habitats, from meadows to heathland.   http://www.theecologist.org/News/news_analysis/1935199/the_state_of_nature_new_report_shows_most_uk_species_in_decline.html
