[SBB] Re:Least Terns return to Salt Pond A2E

[[[email protected]]]

All,
 
For those hoping to see the Least Terns in Salt Pond A2E I should have  
mentioned that the boardwalk is long distance  viewing.  Viewing attempts should be 
made early in the  morning to minimize air distortion and a good scope is a 
must.
 
Unfortunately we also heard this morning that they intend to open up these  
ponds to duck hunting.  Because of locked gates we can't bird the dike  between 
Crittenden Marsh and Salt Pond A2E but they feel that it's OK for people  
with guns to access the ponds to shoot the ducks.  Who knows what will  happen to 
the only reliable place in Santa Clara County where Least Terns  can be found 
during post breeding dispersal.
 
Take care,
Bob Reiling
