    I read it long ago and still have the book packed away.The birds of prey seem to be doing better.Wonder if DDT has all broken down now and is no longer a factor?

    Farmer causes flap while protecting crops

    my son in law (a millville cop) was sent to investigate this.He told us it was poisoning before it hit the papers.My only comment is if this Ingraldi person wants to poison birds on his land he should make sure they die on his land.I would not want hi dead birds dropping all over my yard.
