Man-caused imbalance is what justifies the man-initiated effort to get back to balance.

Of course, the ultimate cause of cowbird overpopulation is anthropogenic, as is the case with almost every long-term imbalance.<br />I live in Michigan and get to see the cowbird control (which I won't spoil the book by discussing here). It makes you wish the bison were still passing through so the cowbirds could do their thing and roam with the herds.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10919516347421533432noreply@blogger.com
