I had another conversation with Ken Speake of Kare 11 today. He had a call from someone berating him for approaching so close to the owl seen on last night's 6:00 news. Some of you e-mailed me about this also. Most of us, yours truly included, probably failed to pick up on the fact that he did not approach the owl that closely. It flew near to him and the lady while they were observing it from a distance. Ken has a keen sense of appreciation for wildlife and wants to do what is ethical. I do not know if the person who called Ken is an MOU member, but we should all speak with respect, even to those with whom we disagree. Let's also keep the image of the MOU and MOU members in mind when dealing with each other and the public.
