How to Hold Onto Your Birds and All Things Keepering - Part 2
Professional gamekeeper Rob Barnard runs two estates and shares the reality behind the job on his YouTube channel, A Gamekeeper's Diary. In part two of this two part series, Rob talks about swapping his Shooting Times column for YouTube, the nerves of putting himself on camera, and how he deals with online trolls and hate comments.
We also cover predator control as ecosystem management rather than eradication, the biggest misconception about gamekeeping, juggling the job with a young family, and why he'd never swap the title "gamekeeper" for anything else.
