Photo: White-tailed Kite at Wavecrest

September 25, 2007
There were still a many White-tailed kites (40-50 individuals), several Red Tailed Hawks(mostly immatures), a few Red Shouldered Hawks feeding on the voles during sunset on 9-25-07. As the sun set, more voles came out and ran frantically, while a pait of Barn Owls hunted the field. A good time was had by some!

Going forward, the City of Half Moon Bay could become a 'cool city' -- and decisions such as which type of lighting to install and other energy consumption decisions would be made based on sustainability and low carbon footprint criteria -- all easy, low impact ways to stop global warming. Sierra Club Cool Cities Campaign: http://www.coolcities.us/ How your city can become a 'Cool City': http://www.coolcities.us/getinvolved That's one way to avoid a 'surprise' lighting decision.

I'd have to agree that sustainable housing would go a long way to increasing quality of life here on the coast side! And would suggest that municipalities adopt sustainable building ordinances. This alone could help reduce regional global warming, and would put more money in home owners' pockets: sustainable buildings tend to be cheaper to maintain: energy is generated and excess energy is sold back to the power company; gray water is reuse of water already paid for; passive solar pays for itself;…
