Ewest I am no expert but have see how much the wild life has come back since the ban here in Canada of DDT. My Dad told me about how there was all kinds of bald eagles, red tail hawks, sparrow hawks, barn owls, screech owls, and snow owls. All my life I have no memory many of these at all.

This last deer hunt with my dad and three boys I pointed out three bald eagles, one sparrow hawk how just about landed on us. A barn owl is just about every block. One snow owl on a fence post. Didn't see any screech owls.

Dad said that it is great to see them coming back. Back from what? Where did they go? What was the greatest change?

Don't get me going on this neonicotinoids

Cheers Don.
