I think it’s time for the Western yellow-bellied cuckoos to take a backseat to the Hairy-Chested Nut Scratcher and the Double-Breasted Pushover.
How endangered can these birds be with habitat in 12 states?
So the Western yellow billed cuckoo turned to the Great Ivory billed woodpecker and asked,
“The birch and beech all ask of the sapling in the clearing between both forests.
“Is it a son of a birch, or a son of a beech?”
“Yeah, I’ve been banging my head against a lot of trees lately, but I remember that one, friend Cuckoo.
“It is neither beech nor birch. It is in fact the best piece of ash I’ve ever had my pecker in.”
Seriously, the Soviets had more sense then our current administration.
US Fish and Wildlife is completely out of Control and getting worse. Every head of every left wing conservation group you can imagine now hold high level jobs. I have been fighting a battle with them for a year. They run the show folks, not your elected officials. Their goal is to take over the West. but it ain’t going to happen. The States, the Counties and the Cities are fighting back. We will not rest until we are given back our lands..the lands that do not belong to the Federal goverment. The land they mismangage and give us pennies on the dollar in the form of PILT (Payment in Lieu of Taxes, or as I like to say, PENNIES IN LIEU OF TRILLIONS). We are organizing and we are mobilizing.
Well that’s quite a vivid description. Hey, got any spare ‘Mind Bleach’?
Exactly! The Cuckoo’s are actually in D.C.
a half-million acres as critical habitat for the Western yellow-billed cuckoo....
For a damn bird??????????????
I was just thinking, we eat chickens, we raise them for food and we always have plenty of them.... Seems like that is the answer. Eat the Cuckoo birds! Seems to cause us to have more of them, when we raise them for food.
“I think it’s time for the Western yellow-bellied cuckoos to take a backseat to the Hairy-Chested Nut Scratcher and the Double-Breasted Pushover.”
The Hairy Chested, Double-Breasted Nut Crackers in the enviro-nutter groups will be on your fence’s top rail, screeching hysterically by dawn tomorrow.

Where is Orrin Hatch on this?
You know what they used to say... "Don't count your Hatch until he chickens."

The eastern species of cuckoos feed on tentworms which other birds can’t eat through all the webbing... my pecan trees could use a flock of them right now.
The funny thing is the eastern yellow billed cuckoo is quite happy and common in older residential neighborhoods in Illinois; “setting habitate aside” for them would mean creating more shady suburbia.
Nixon’s enduring legacy,,,,price controls and the EPA
As a taxpayer, I'm sick of "giving it away", so why don't you come up with some money and buy it.
Absolutely criminal...They breed in over half the country now but the enviro-nazis (that includes the USF&WS) want to declare over half million acres in the West, critical habitat.
An open season with no limit should be declared on enviro-nazis.
