Bunhill: Wagtails in the works
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Much feathering of nests at the giant petrochemical complex at Grangemouth, where BOC has been unable to use one of its five huge liquid nitrogen storage tanks on the site because two pied wagtails moved in while the tank was undergoing repairs.
They promptly laid five eggs and the tank will now have to remain shut down until the chicks leave.
Next door at the BP refinery, two peregrine falcons are nesting on an 80ft tower. Bunhill thinks we should be told: do peregrine falcons hunt wagtail chicks?
