[Tweeters] The East 90 - a question?

[Ronda Stark via Tweeters]

Hi Tom,

At least the pelagic birds do not run the risk of being hit by cars. The
owls at the East 90 run substantial risk while hunting close to the road
and coming up out of the ditch.
This is now much worse since photographers leaving the area tend to load up
their gear and take off at high speed once they have their pics.

I'm not sure this changes the ethics but it is worth consideration.

Ronda
