You wanna build an airport on the edge of a wildlife preserve, you gotta expect some delays, courtesy of Mother Nature.
I go birding at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge all the time, and right now it's Diamondback Terrapin breeding season. All over the refuge you see nests protected by wire cages with little red flags atop, to thwart the non-indigenous raccoons which would otherwise destroy 90+ percent of the nests. Occasionally, you encounter a mama terrapin on the hiking paths, and you wish her well and continue on your way.
They see turtles....I see soup.
FEAR THE TURTLE!! (for all those Maryland alumni)
Perpetual state of things at the Vero Beach FL. airport I learned to fly at. It only seemed to be a problem to the Arab students who got confused when tower would communicate something besides what they expected.
Say what?
Since when are raccoons non-indigenous to NY?
A real bimbo, left wing veggie cruncher called Hannity’s show today when he was talking about this turtle story.
To prove, yet again, how totally idiotic the left is she said, “but Sean, you have to protect their eggs. Did you that only a few of their eggs ever hatch from all they lay? They need protection.”
So, this total braindead moron doesn’t understand nature so she thinks she should interfere. I bet she’d be horrified to learn that MILLIONS of termite eggs don’t hatch either. QUICK, let’s put them on the endangered species list.
I can’t believe we have so many functional idiots in this country. No wonder it’s almost over.
