"Stuff is eaten by dogs, broken by family and friends, sanded down by the wind, frozen by the mountains, lost by the prairie, burnt off by the sun, washed away by the rain. So you are left with dogs, family, friends, sun, rain, wind, prairie and mountains. What more do you want?" Federico Calboli

More Ivanpah
A few days ago I posted about seeing the Ivanpah solar plant from the air. A commenter mentioned that it was killing lots of birds. I just saw in the Palm Springs newspaper that the US Fish and Wildlife Service has issued a report calling it a "mega-trap" killing birds. This picture is of a fried Northern Rough-winged Swallow found at Ivanpah.

Interesting. The article that Reid links to contains a broken link to the US Fish & Wildlife report. If you want to see the details, the full link to that report is:
