> Subject: Troubling behavior on the Ottawa NWR auto tour
> 
> Yesterday I saw about five cars stopped by the Great Horned Owl nest.  All were out of their cars with cameras. One man even pulled his pickup truck next to the nest and was standing in the bed of the truck with his huge tripod and camera. I asked them all not to do this but was ignored.  Please respect wildlife.  This probably occurs most of every day for eight hours. What a nightmare for the young as well as the adults.  I suggest that signs need to be posted about no parking or standing near the nest.

> How can anyone feel that they love wildlife with this kind of behavior. Please always consider the welfare of the species over your own desire to get the best photo or sighting.   Please share with others who may be up there birding this month.
