After further thinking on this subject ( who snickered?), I believe that this is about as bad as it will get. The whole shebang is closed for , what, 28-30 days? The time that a Plover takes to hatch and fly. So every year from here on out you can count on the Race being closed from the middle of June to the middle of July. That's just how the birds work. It'll only stay open all season when the birds leave the endangered list. So, it's actually to our advantage not to rush the little wretch's recovery. A little pain=no pain later. I don't like it either but I have to face reality...
MIkeP is right No demand=No access

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
