RE: [nysbirds-l] Bank swallow colony - Farmingville
Luke, I have forwarded your posts to U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service for comment regarded protection of the swallow colony under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) since they administer the MBTA as a federal law.

Part of the bank shows significant use by ATV's. Stringent enforcement of the code banning them would seem appropriate here. -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
