I'm afraid that I've totally changed my mind over the past year or so, purely because of the gun situation. I shan't be setting foot in your country until the gun laws are significantly updated to offer safety to innocent people. <br /><br />I hope that you and Micheal have a wonderful Christmas and wish you both a happy, healthy and prosperous 2016, filled with amazing birds!

I dropped them off and took my camera and the truck about a mile and a half past where they were, just the other side of the woods. There were the turkeys all gobbling along side the road. I took a bunch of pictures And laughed out loud.<br />Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10136566754402476915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-65931161979874217932015-12-20T08:09:43.256-07:002015-12-20T08:09:43.256-07:00Why are people allowed to hunt in places where oth...Why are people allowed to hunt in places where others like to hike and make photos!?

I think it comes down to these horses being killed and without notice.

I have seen the destruction to some of the habitat and that will only make it more difficult for the native wildlife to flourish. I love to see the horses when I visit, but I also enjoy seeing what else can be found there, including the bird life. That small area can only sustain a certain number of the horses which are not native. Not sure what the solution is, but hope all parties can reach an workable solution in the future.
