The land is only cheap when you pretend those externalized environmental costs do not exist. They still have to be paid, usually by the public at large. I think the saying goes; socialize the cost and privatize the gains.
Build over existing infrastructure. One example is current project to cover water canals with solar. Don’t need to acquire land, reduces evaporation saving water, reduces plant growth in canals lowering maintenance costs.
Common yellowthroat would be its accomplice.
Having an identity crisis?
Yes, no allegation Arnold fraudulently used campaign funds. The rest is the same. I suspect Arnold listens to his handlers and is not ignorant enough to commit crimes to cover his tracks.
So it took the wrong fork in the road?
Fishing machines. Talons adapted to hold sides of fish, hold head forward so more aerodynamic in flight, ratcheted so uses no strength to clutch but only to release. Holding fish head forward also helpful taking off from water after strike, fish swimming motion trying to escape gives forward energy. So cool.
Blessed being in a temperate coastal zone, they are always about. More activity now as enter nesting season. Definitely a joy to watch fussing about the nest. We do have a web cam but not enough bandwidth to stream live, drops internet when we try.
I hope you are lucky. FYI, a Bald Eagle has been around the bay the past couple weeks. Snagged a couple Coots near the old salt dike last Thursday and was seen harassing an Osprey by mile marker 2.25 yesterday.
I got lucky, it’s prey, not so much.
OMG, I just realized I’m subbed to Kayaking and Birding communities. I was groomed by a Snowy Owl, must be a rather Superbowl at that.
Where my Ookpik homies at?
Wow, looks unreal, like it has a mask on.
TIL, thank you. Can see both components. What about owls who regurgitate pellets? Is the pellet just the indigestible bits and the rest excreted?
Uh, I don’t want to know
Caught in the act but is it a deuce? All waste comes out at once from the same orifice. Does not go number 1 or number 2 (deuce). Maybe it’s a trey?
Well put! Stealing that for future use.
