1. I see what you did there

Point well taken.

The fact is many people just don't give a shit.

Which is why those who do care should never quit trying to protect the earth in which we steward.

2. Beautiful post.

And this for all the species that have gone extinct through human wastefulness, greed, cruelty, and carelessness.

Yes, as the first reply poster said, we need to protect and care for our Earth.

even in the 30s they were killing bald eagles because they were rumored to snatch babies

spit 'em up, use 'em out

Dedicated by another "tyrannical" Roosevelt (Franklin).

8. Is the second one a Carolina Parrot?

I used to live in South Carolina, and it makes me sad that I never got to see parrots in the wild.

10. Yes it is.

And the first bird is a Bachman's Warbler, with the last know breeding area being in the Francis Marion National Forest near Charleston, South Carolina.

The whole thing was a setup, I tell you!
