Originally posted by WPRESTO They made some change to coastal water control, and as a consequence the number of birds at DD has plummeted drastically probably by over 90% between our two visits
I have heard that too but we always find DD a worthwhile trip, as well as the Bailey Tract, and the beach for its very confiding shorebirds. It's also a jumping off point for a number of great places like Corkscrew Swamp. I worry that the barrier islands (Sanibel and Captiva) might be breached, further endangering the mainland. I'm sure our planned trip there for December will no longer be feasible.
