Sunday Cape Cod Times Op Ed

You know, when all is said and done, more will be said than done. That being said I would like to make a point/s.

The wildlife population thats feeds off of plovers are the most malnourished animals I have ever scene. Getting out of my truck at sunrise in the Duxbury/Gurnet area a few years ago I occasioned upon two of the sickest looking foxes I have even seen. If all hey had to eat was plovers I could understand why they were so skinny and ill looking.

If the plovers are so important why are not some of these preservationists camped out next to there nest. If one of the little baby plovers wanders off they can put on a bird suit pick up the chick and put it back in the nest.

Even when meetings are held to air thoughts and grievences about the plover issue I firmly believe its the meetings that are held that we don't know about is where policy is made.
