So I noticed that the new walkway was not taped and thought it was open for
use. Saw and photographed the pelicans etc and one of the construction guys
told me it was not ready for use. This was last week. I did mention they
should put the tape and a sign so it looks like they have not done so.
Take care & Stay wild!
