This Jeep "Liberty" tailgated my car for the longest time. I carry an egg with me in my car (it's my lunch). I hold the egg up in hopes the "Liberty" will see I carry an egg and I am not afraid to use it. The Jeep did not get the message. The train was going by at the crossing - I got out and took a photo of the jeep. Apparently the driver of this jeep is on drugs, on their cell phone or just plain stupid. The driver of this jeep might want to learn the appropriate space to maintain between cars while driving in a non-congested area. I'm glad my car did not break down on the other side of the tracks this time or this jeep might have had a dilemma.
I will try to post a day or so before they leave for Houston.

Update: The trailer was gone so we are hoping it was loaded and now on it's way South.
Update: The trailer is back - they'd only taken it to a Church for them to bring in donations. It is still there waiting for more donations before it heads South.
The migratory path for the annual trek for millions of these starlings and other birds has been totally destroyed in one fell swoop immediately beyond the berm shown here. Massive land clearing took hundreds of acres of trees and brush to make way for a shopping, apartment, parking and recreational area. Unfortunately this clearing did not take into account the devastating effects of local flora and fauna who now are scrambling without direction hoping to reach their destination or at least a place to rest. These are real birds and they are indeed angry - massive murmations are flying back and forth searching for landing points and have been doing so for over a week. Yet no accountability by the land developer or the land clearing company. There is no remediation for this now and the damage was accomplished in a matter of days. The noise when walking among what trees are left is deafening as the distress calls of these disoriented birds really is a bit unnerving.
Cheltenham Wetlands Park was once part of the U.S. Naval Radio Station, Cheltenham, Maryland. It was commissioned in 1939.
“The original antenna fields, comprising creosoted wood telephone poles and metal antenna towers, were located in the acreage surrounding the buildings. All metal antenna poles have been removed from the installation. Some abandoned creosoted wood poles remain in the wooded and swampy sections of the installation.
Established as a radio receiving station before World War II, the installation's mission evolved to administration during the Cold War era.”
