Hi David,
Thanks for the thoughts. The law appears to have passed by more than a minority. Are people doing any advocacy work to have it repealed? The article that Lou showed sited potential environmental damage as a result of the birds being fed. Do you buy this?
From the link above:
"In past successive council meetings, McLay and a host of others brought forth evidence, mostly photographs and studies, showing the damage possible by unnaturally high eagle populations on the Spit. Those advocating for feeding eagles argued that it should remain legal due to tradition and economy, and for the sake of Keene."

PS I am debating moving this thread to the Habitat Conservation Forum. It is a great thread...I am hesitant to move it because I have 'lost' threads in the past when trying to do this.
