Ancient history but funny

I remember in the Summer of 94 sitting in my truck at the Second Rip (which was as far as we could go because of the birds) and watching a Golden Eagle who had two chick, sit on a post with a sign saying that we couldn't drive there because of the "endangered plovers." She would take off every 1/2 hour or so and pick off a plover chick and head for her offspring. So we can't drive where the birds are but Momma Eagle probably ate 50 plovers a week.

Just stupidity if you ask me. Now we have the seals and the plovers. Where does it end? They are protecting everything but our rights.

No boat, back in the suds.
