Buzzards are the most common and widespread bird of prey in the UK and often feed on carrion, according to the RSPB.

Working with researchers from the UK's Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, a WWF team installed solar-powered greenhouse gas monitoring stations on Hesketh Out Marsh, a saltmarsh in North-West England that has been restored and is managed by the RSPB.

Beccy Speight, the RSPB's chief executive, said: "We are absolutely delighted the panel has found the ecological case for the closure of industrial sandeel fishing is sound."

He helped organise last year's Restore Nature Now march which brought tens of thousands of people onto the streets and was supported by a whole range of nature focused organisations including big charities like the National Trust and RSPB, as well as campaign groups like JSO.

Fewer starlings are visiting UK gardens, according to the conservation charity, the RSPB.
