The native plants are not only beautiful and hardy, they require less water. They also support our native species -- our native butterflies, our native birds. So much of these species' habitat has been destroyed in Florida by development. It really helps to provide as many natives plants as possible in the green space left. They are precious areas.

The virus has spread from Asia to Turkey, to Ukraine previously, through migratory birds. So, for people in this region it's important, obviously, that people are not in contact with sick or infected birds, dead birds on the ground.

The government's failure to act is increasingly frustrating, to put it politely. I am beginning to feel very angry because this delay is making full extinction of these birds much more likely.

It's what we like to call the raptor experience. Because it truly is an experience when we put the birds out for display. They are magical creatures.

I don't think we'd get anyone coming if there were birds here.
We don't want to have water backed up in any manner because that attracts water fowl, and the last thing we need at the airport is birds making their home. It's a safety issue.

It is ridiculous that they have been allowing the import of birds as pets in recent weeks without even placing them in quarantine.

We get very few quail. The last ones we got were domesticated birds that had gotten loose.
One of the concerns I think is that we don't know very much, really, about how this particular strain is interacting in migratory birds.
