Rhode Island's only dog track, Twin River, will be "suspending" dog racing. Mooney Rhode Island. That decision was threatened, however, when Senate Budget Amendment 155 was introduced, which would have allowed racing to continue for several years beyond the original (2010) date of cessation.

The states which have essentially banned leghold traps are Florida, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Arizona, Colorado, Massachusetts, California, and Washington. The trapper, who was not a local, ended up in court, had to pay a fine, and (we were eventually told) was not planning to trap in the area in the future.

I can’t think of any birder (or botanist or lepidopterist) who wouldn’t find the Kaufman Field Guide to Nature of New England useful during a trip to Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, or Maine. It is the perfect field guide for the beginning naturalist.

As you may have heard ( here and here are two of Stephanie's posts on the matter), Rhode Island legislators were going to hold a special session to prevent Twin River from shutting down live racing. As is usually the case, the next step is legislation that actually bans dog racing in the state.

You can designate it thus; you can legally call it a Rhode Island Red chicken if you want, but no whooping crane on this planet is nonessential. It flies on. photo by JZ When a population of birds numbers only 400 in the wild, there can be no such thing as a “nonessential” individual. Not when we have but 400 to spare.

The dry and tangy palate provides enough counterpoint to prevent this blend of Red Delicious, Cortland, Ida Red, and Rhode Island Greenings apples from becoming too cloying, though Barn Swallow ends with a punchy and fruity finish that doesn’t overwhelm with tartness or tannins. Good birding and happy drinking!
