The whole thing is so ridiculous.
We've been down this road. Remove the nest and the birds will find another place. In the same territory. With the same-if not actually greater-risk of plane strikes. The very first Norfolk nest was at the end of the runway. They removed the tree. That nest wasn't safe for the birds or people. The eagles went to NBG. Where it is now is relatively remote from the airport.
The only thing this does is allow politicians to pat themselves on the back and say they "did something". And they're forcing NBG's hand making it clear they will be held liable if they don't "do something" too.
So when the next plane strikes whatever unlucky bird happens to be nearby-more likely to be 1 of 1000 geese than 1 of 2 eagles-they can all say "we tried!"
Bull. Period. Petition signed.
