BIRDLAND FREE PRESS: BIRDLAND FREE PRESS (BFP) 4.1887902165

FULL CIRCLE FARM / 26 NOVEMBER 2015

3 MARCH 2018 / Email Don Sun @ dsun@cupertino.org and submit your comments about permanent traffic calming measures (etc) needed in the neighborhoods surrounding the new Apple Spaceship -- Also; what do you think about Vallco Mall being utilized for day/night educational, housing and entertainment purposes?

UPDATE / 28 OCT 2017 -- Since the last Birdland Free Press update on 16 May 2017 regarding keeping chickens at the new SCUSD farm; I spoke to the new farm manager and he said they will eventually reintroduce chickens to the farm. So this lofty and noble goal of keeping chickens at the farm has finally been achieved; and I want to thank those of you who spoke out on the issue for not being a bunch of chickens. But it appears yet another problem has sprung up as of late in that the new farm manager and/or the SCUSD (not sure which; maybe both because I have seen an SCUSD truck parked inside the farm at night lately) has hired a gopher abatement service that has all but decimated the California ground squirrel population at the Peterson Middle School field in the past few months. (note: there is still a healthy population of ground squirrels nearby at a location I will not specify at this time)

I spoke to a Birdland neighbor while exercising at the Peterson field who said dogs who are walked at the field are getting sick from the rodenticide being used; so what I am asking of you this time around is to contact the various specified entities seen below and ask for natural solutions to control the ground squirrels population at the Peterson field.

Owl boxes were once installed surrounding the farm parcel during the time of the opening of the Full Circle farm by the State of California; but most owls are nocturnal and not crepuscular and/or active around sunrise and/or sunset. Therefore fledgling predatory birds (falcons and/or hawks etc) need to be physically relocated within these various boxes to create an imprint on the farm territory and increase the chances of annual nesting within the boxes. But permission from a government wildlife agency is needed to do this kind of thing; so I have included contact information for various entities including the California Department of Fish and Wildlife so you can make suggestions regarding this important subject.

THIS IS BIRDLAND! BIRDS ARE THE NATURAL SOLUTION!

1) SIGN THE PETITION! DEMAND AND END TO THE SCUSD POISONING OF CALIFORNIA GROUND SQUIRRELS AT PETERSON FIELD IN SUNNYVALE, CALIFORNIA! @ https://www.thepetitionsite.com/573/889/888/demand-and-end-to-the-poisoning-of-california-ground-squirrels-at-peterson-field/

2) CONTACT THE SCUSD MAINTENANCE AND FACILITIES DEPARTMENT AND TELL THEM TO STOP ALLOWING THE MASS POISONING OF GROUND SQUIRRELS AT THE PETERSON FIELD! TELL THEM SINCE THIS IS THE BIRDLAND NEIGHBORHOOD PLEASE REPLACE THIS BARBARIC PRACTICE WITH NATURAL METHODS OF RODENT CONTROL USING THE OWL BOXES INSTALLED BY THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA INSTEAD!

BUT SINCE MOST OWL SPECIES ARE NOCTURNAL AND NOT CREPUSCULAR LIKE GROUND SQUIRRELS; CREPUSCULAR FLEDGLING HAWKS AND/OR FALCONS WHO WILL RETURN ANNUALLY NEED TO BE RELOCATED TO THESE BOXES INSTEAD -- WITH AUTHORIZATION FROM THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE -- FOR LONG TERM GROUND SQUIRREL MAINTENANCE AND/OR SURVIVAL...

EMAIL SCUSD AND SAY: "PLEASE DO NOT MASS POISON GROUND SQUIRRELS AT THE NEW PETERSON MIDDLE SCHOOL FARM! REPLACE WITH NATURAL METHODS! THIS IS THE BIRDLAND NEIGHBORHOOD! PLEASE USE BIRDS AS A SOLUTION!"

"THE FUTURE LIES WITHIN QUANTUM CIVICS AND/OR DEEPENED DEMOCRACY FOR ALL..."

(INCLUDING WILDLIFE)...

Note: Administrators who run public schools like Peterson Middle School and/or Mission College often think just because they are involved in educating students they can do whatever they please -- but this could not be farther from the truth. Fortunately there are state and federal etc laws that restrict their behavior. Adding to this; what I am expressing here is what is generally known as a "conservative" ideology; but then again it is also a liberal "environmentally conservative" ideology as well.

Republicans and Democrats both used to be the parties of environmental conservation; but both sides have essentially lost their way. Republicans and Democrats often bow to corporate interests regardless of public opinion or other obstacles (In other words; Apple [Democrats] and/or Monsanto [Republicans and/or 'Republicrats'] etc). > Re·pub·li·crat / noun: Republicrat; plural noun: Republicrats -- a person whose political philosophy is a blend of policies and principles from both the Republican and Democratic parties. "Republicrats are blurring the differences between our two parties" etc (See Cupertino Roundup segment below)

The bottom line: Democratic California Governor Jerry Brown was the first to suggest loosening environmental restrictions a few years ago long before President Trump; so Democrats are every bit as guilty when it comes to playing loose and fast with our natural environment. (Therefore; "If it's Jerry Brown; flush it down"...)

CALIFORNIA VOLES also inhabit the Peterson field...

THIS NESTING KILLDEER PROTECTION FLYER WAS FOUND AT THE PETERSON FIELD A FEW MONTHS AGO -- QUESTION: WHY IS THE KILLDEER POPULATION BEING PROTECTED BUT NOT THE KEYSTONE SPECIES GROUND SQUIRREL THAT SO MANY OTHER ANIMALS RELY ON FOR SURVIVAL? WTF!?!

NESTING KILLDEER @ THE PATRICK HENRY PROPERTY / CIRCA 2009

*A shorebird you can see without going to the beach, Killdeer are graceful plovers common to lawns, golf courses, athletic fields, and parking lots. These tawny birds run across the ground in spurts, stopping with a jolt every so often to check their progress, or to see if they’ve startled up any insect prey. Their voice, a far-carrying, excited kill-deer, is a common sound even after dark, often given in flight as the bird circles overhead on slender wings. > GO TO: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Killdeer/lifehistory
