Thanks for sharing the bad news Craig.
I can't help but wonder if groups of birders wandering around or people
unfamiliar with the site caused issues with the golf course that
precipitated the action. I have been birding that spot for 40 years and
until now, golf course staff and management always seemed amenable to
birders being there.
