    With work like this, it’s little wonder the artist is a Pulitzer Prize winner…

    MIchael does do excellent artwork, however the ultra-right today are more Bantum rooster than “eagles”. Considering it is the law and regulations they opposed that have, for now, removed the bald eagle from the endangered list, I can’t find it appropriate for them to rally around the symbol.

    We can rally only if we pull together, not apart, it is time to start.

    Gore bane:

    Actually turbines were and remain hard on raptors, bats, and flying critters, but the designs have improved a lot. Poisoned coyote “baits” have killed a lot more goldens, as have ranchers shooting them to protect their sheep. Cars also take quite a toll, as goldens are scavenges who’ve never seen a road kill they could resist. The “Bald Eagle Protection Act” was actually expanded to include goldens because so many people were killing immature balds, not being able to distinguish them from golden eagles (same underwing markings in juvies). Also interesting in the study leading to the act, the only proven predation of golden eagle on sheep (as opposed to scavenging) was on a lambing pen the rancher put right under a cliff with something like 10 golden eagle nests. It was setting the dining table and complaining when they came to dinner.)

    There is a lot more out there on wind turbine interactions and “improvements” as well as raptors like eagles, vultures, hawks and falcons.(and bats!) Do more research.

    HOWEVER, the point of this picture was to remind us of what we can do TOGETHER as a nation…How did this post turn into a Ultra right vs Ultra left battleground?
