Subject: [Tweeters] The East 90 - a question? |
TWEET! TWEET!
The East 90 is proving to again be a reliable location for Harriers
and SEOW. However,
unlike last year, the birds are staying quite a ways away from the
road. There
certainly are lots of photographers and viewers present ... at just
about any time of
day and any day of the week - about the only thing that cuts down on the
numbers
is bad weather/bad light.
As to the subject of the birds staying back away from the road (most
of the time) - I
have a question. Is it ethical to drop some corn kernels in the grass
near the road?
I'm not talking 'right along the road/ditch' but rather in the grass on
the other
side of the ditch.
This should attract the voles which should attract the Harriers and
SEOWs.) Is it likely
to work? If one were to do this - would you need to do it several
times? And
what kind of frequency? Every 3 or 4 days for 2 or 3 weeks? More?
- Jim
P.S. The new parking area is getting used - but it doesn't seem to make
any difference
in the number of cars parked along the road. There have
-definitely- been some
hunters in the legal areas of the Samish Flats and Fir Island.
