So pleased to see this on UK Wildlife Photos. I'vev always found this species to be one of the classic British birds.

For someone in my field I would ask why bother publishing with them when there are many excellent society journals available? I try to avoid them in general because of the dodgy editorial processes reported in some of them.

I’ve always assumed so!
