.: Project- Antioch Burrowing Owls :.
July 23rd
I had intended to keep a snippet of details regarding the plight of the Antioch owls in this section, but as the battle heated up early in the year I lost track of posting new details. This was especially true since I was trying to keep a valid "owl count" from prying eyes; owls returned to only be evicted again. Well, as of July the burrowing owl and ground squirrel population has remained at a disheartening zero.
Although things are bleak for "my" owls, I am happy to say that my burrowing owl conservation activities have moved to the next level within the city, county, state and nation because there are more colonies that are in dire need of assistance.
With that said, keep an eye on Journowl.com and head on over to a new organization that is dedicated to turning a declining population into a thriving population.

McClenachan used a unique method for quantitating the changes of [...]

Overfishing is rearing its ugly head once again and I am quite certain the repercussions of depleting our world’s fish stocks will continue to directly (and indirectly) strangle a multitude of species. Taking center stage are 7 tuxedo-clad species threatened by commercial fisheries, increased competition for prey, habitat loss and degradation, disease, predation, and climate [...]
Big Box Fisheries & Misplaced Priorities
Scott | December 18, 2008
The classic battle being fought around the country between Big Box Stores and Mom & Pop Shops has transcended our coastlines and sailed into the global fisheries industry. Whether we have a predisposition for supporting underdogs, or strive to preserve tradition, we seem to harbor a connection to small local businesses and feel dismayed by [...]
