SIR - Further to George Cowley's revelation under the headline "Seagull attacks poor old crows", how does he know it is old or even poor? The most intelligent of birds will certainly have a nest egg somewhere.
This brings us to the programme instigated by the British Association for Shooting and Conservation, acting for Defra, to shoot crows, magpies and other corvids, which feed on carrion, as they would possibly be a factor in spreading avian influenza. This is just another excuse for the Bloodlust Brigade to let loose.
ROGER MARTIN,
Evesham.
