They are Back! Indian Island Egrets!


Their back! Driving across the Samoa Bridge I noticed a flock of Egrets in the Monterey Cypress trees on Indian Island. Summer must be around the corner! Every year they show back up to nest. There is some concern about how much longer that they can use the island, as the trees are not native and were planted in the 1860's. They might be closing in on their life span.

In the title and the post, Richard; It's TheY'RE, not their.

Richard, Richard, Richard. Apparently none of what Shirley and Doris taught you in 8th grade stuck. What a shame. A public official should at least appear to be intelligent. You might want to pick up dictionary and actually try using it.

Shirley and Doris would expect it! I never claimed to be the sharpest tool in the shed. But I have enough smarts to get by. A public official should at least appear to be intelligent? You don't read the news very much, do you.

First sentence: Their back, should read either They're back, or They are back.

The news is depressing, and the people that report it don't know how to spell or punctuate, either.
