Heavy rain and flooding has had a disastrous impact on many of the RSPB's nature reserves, the charity has said.

Nests and breeding grounds have been destroyed by rising water levels, the bird protection group added.

Did they honestly think that all their fund raising and bleating about the likkle birdies was going to stop nature doing what nature has always done?  noooo:

No, no, no Snoops - they quite obviously expected that the gubbiment and "those in positions of power" should have 'done something'.

After all, it was predictabubble with all the Global/Climate/Warming/Change/Events/Anomalies happenning.

They should have been able to stop it shouldn't they?

After all, they are all powerful - just like Canute was       whistle:
