Because ingestion of spent lead shot has been documented to cause acute health problems in wildlife (most notably death), use of lead shot has been increasingly restricted over the past few decades. On federal wildlife refuges and many states’ wildlife management areas, non-toxic shot is required when hunting all game birds.

Newly surrounded by wildlife, he found his love of birds reignited. People whoever they are (even the most experienced of hawkwatchers) love Bald Eagles – it’s just a given. Many of them also allow us to share a positive conservation story too: Bald Eagles, Ospreys and Peregrines all come to mind.

One of my early memories of birds is the abundance of Ospreys I saw after moving from Syracuse, New York downstate to eastern Long Island at the age of eight. I know that Ospreys nest in upstate central New York, but if I saw them there as a child, I don’t recall it (though my father will probably remind me that we did).

In fact, the very first person to guess, Nick , managed to get the third quiz picture correct by calling it a Bald Eagle. Of course, that was the easiest of the three because though the bird in the image is captive, a bird that was injured and can’t be returned to the wild, Bald Eagles do occur regularly and naturally in Queens.

of Fish and Wildlife Commissioner Jon Gassett has indicated that if enough people write in protest, the proposed hunting season–due to start this December– will be reconsidered.
