And I must be careful to protect my skin, having had a couple of basal cells removed. And I must say, based on this most unscientific sample group, the future for my own birder’s health could be quite rosy.

But this potential population of California Condors will be a “nonessential experimental” group.

I got a sample of the Heart U Back friendship bracelet , and it is my new favorite thing to wear. Heart U Back also supports animal protection agencies on a global level, including Canada (OSPCA and BCSPCA), Australia (RSPCA), and the UK (RSPCA). Their mission is one that we can get behind too!

So I put together a “carnival” (of sorts) of Feral Cat Ordinances and Issues that samples current events across the US. Nonprofit pet protection groups would manage the program and be responsible for ensuring that cat caretakers take the required steps. And it goes on and on, this is just a sampling.
