Gee, I have to say something. The Valley Land Fund has always been about
habitat preservation. They are not a birding organization and owe nothing to
the birding community. We owe them. I'm always thankful for their hard work
when I visit their Sheepshead lot on South Padre Island where habitat for
migrating birds decreases with each passing year. Regarding Salineno, the
Valley Land Fund has the right to do whatever it wants. Security and liability
is a rightful concern. What a shame it would be for something bad to happen
just so "birders" can sit around a see birds without exerting any effort.
Would it kill birders to actually walk around a bit to find birds? Maybe even
learn a few calls? Sometimes life is tough and you have to put in a little
effort.

P.S. I would give my opinion about safety concerns but I don't want to upset
the local business community.
