Should be mandatory viewing for all ‘birders” that follow and care about the migratory activity of these great animals, especially along the Tuscarora and Massanutten ridges. From this pathetic display and the accompanying videos of other PGer’s getting in the way of soaring birds, it appears that their shroud lines are a growing threat to these majestic fliers. “What are you fluttering for you little bitch?”!! This lucky a** is yet another example of what happens when an invasive species enters a new arena! Ward
