We Are Ready to Build Our Nest - 2010

The government powers that be have come with noise, and at night, flares, to scare the birds out of the rookery. I think the government agency's motto is "Scrape the Earth Clean."
Some die-hard birds keep trying to stay. Breaks my heart and I am making it as difficult for them to make their noise and shoot their flares as I possibly can.

this is idiotic. take pictures of the noise makers and post them, so all can see how wonderful our "famous" corp is. how is keeping them from nesting less disturbing to the birds than running bulldozers near them? They've built this levee 3 times and it didn't bother them, why is it going to this time? Beautiful picture of the egrets.
