It seems that volleyball players in south Alabama have killed hundreds of baby birds, and stacked eggs to bake in the hot sun. I think prosecution is in order.

It's a Federal offense.

In the 70's I spent a lot of time fishing on Florida's Atlantic coast.

I found many beautiful little coves and inlets.

All of them had been turned into dumps by the locals who dumped all their trash there.

There was one especially nice place called Turkey Point.

The locals turned in into a garbage dump.

Then the Feds came and cleaned it up.

And built a Nuclear plant there.

Years go I lived in Washington near a small creek called Soos Cr. It got a run of Chinook salmon every year. Some idiots would go out with baseball bats and start beating the crap out of spawning fish. Probably destroyed millions of salmon eggs. Such stupidly wanton destruction, and they were hooting and hollering the whole time. Total A**holes!

Often they're both.

Too many people care about nothing but their vapid pleasure of the moment.

Let's hope the fencing the Audubon Society has put up solves the problem.

Why do they say they did that? A sport just to kill them? Did they think it was an alternative to fishing for them?
