Of course there is a nest right by the north side access trail, so enjoy it while you can. Some nests were washed over in the last (storm) high tides, so expect them to attempt to re-nest. Don't shoot the messenger!

Wow! That many nests? I thought these critters were "endangered." BS!

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

I truly wish I could get down there for this meeting. If My wife drops the baby before then I will be in Mashpee to work that night anyhow maybe i can parlay that into a visit to Eastham. All depends on the timing of the work I have to get done in Mashpee.

I am the man in the Bassless Chaps

I'll be there

All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.

The new wordage is threatened. The former wordage was concerned specie.
I guess using the word threatened makes it more urgent to destroy anything in the path of the plover.

In the past concerned was used because the specie was increasing.

Looks like the park is a plover farm at the expense of any other specie

I'll be there...Last year it was very interesting.All kinds of people spoke during the open mike period.They ranged from grade school kids[7-8 yr olds] to Sierra Club,IFAW,hunters,and the elderly.Ironically the most silent group[pubilcally saying they represented the group] was the Mass Audobon.Not one of the directors[Wellfleet] or higher ups said one word.When there's any sort of meeting about ORV usage they're all there whining and spouting.
