In fact, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service last fall listed the bird as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act.

Once again, the ESA has abused its tyrannical power. The "western" yellow-billed cuckoo is simply a population segment of the entire complex known as the yellow-billed cuckoo. And it is NOT endangered in any way!

There's another thread about this very abuse of the ESA upthread about the wolf. I pinged you to it earlier.

Sidenote: I happen to know some people who have worked for Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory. Don't think I know this Beason guy though.

Unfortunately, he said, it’s tough to find funding through the Fish and Wildlife Service for such studies for listed species.

Once it's listed why spend the money to find out that it's common? That would cut off the funding for "protection."

They’re not seen here, at much higher than 8,000 feet. Have seen more birds this winter, though, with temps for this location being roughly thirty degrees higher than usual for this time of year (part of the warm pattern that stretches to the West coast).

The guy wants money. All he has to say is “because global warming” and the solution is higher taxes and cutting off access of huge swaths of land. Cash will come flowing.

Idiot CT legislator wants: **A bill that aims for ‘legal equality’ of snapping turtles**

Snapping turtles. I said SNAPPING TURTLES!!!

The DEEP rep who said we know *little* about the ST is dumb beyond belief ....they have been studied ad nauseaum.

These state-paid loons never get out of their office except at lunchtime to go to the food truck parked outside.

I hit a yellow billed cuckoo with my truck and identified it as if flipped up over the windshield
