    Such a beautiful bird

    Beautiful majestic birds. My Florida winter retreat is a relatively small community on 2,400 acres. There is a lot of open space. We are an Audubon International Silver Signature Member. We have a lot of Bald Eagles. Always a great seeing them.

    Fluke Season 2026 Analysis

    I never meant to imply that the damage done by heavy spraying of insecticides, or the changing of the habitat by digging 5,000 miles of drainage, or inbreeding was in any way a cause for the collapse of the Winter Flounder. It was meant to show that it may be impeding their recovery. I wasn’t...

    We probably started sometime in the 80’s and I still continue to participate today. Can only guess but probably tagged well over 1,000. I also participate in the Tuna Tagging Prigram.
