POLICE are appealing for the witness who reported seeing a man on a quad bike, along with an eagle owl tethered to a post in the Lammermuirs, to come forward.
The appeal says: "It is essential that the person who witnessed this event make themselves known to police, as without further details as to the location and what exactly was witnessed little can be done."
Contact can be made with the Wildlife Crime Officer, PC Andy Loughlin at the following e-mail address, andrew.loughlin@scotland.pnn.police.uk, or alternatively contact 101.
