Lana - If Mr. Turner's efforts are good he can hopefully show how conservation and a solid economy can go hand in hand. Zen - I frown every time I go to my favorite place, Rock Cut State Park... so much of the area around that park has been (or is being) transformed into houses and stores. ~Birdfreak Julie Parker – Education is VITAL and I hope all birders take extra effort to promote knowledge of birds and conservation to the youth.

Here's someone with money buying land and leaving it in its current state, protecting the earth and many wildlife species by preserving the habitats. It's about time we had someone to compete with the developers.

Protecting the environment should take precedence over economical concerns, always. I appreciate Mr. Turner’s efforts, regardless of his ultimate motivations (which may be a bit of both.)

I know I have taken care of them all my life. My father loved birds and we always had an aviary. I am glad Mr. Turner is doing so much for wildlife and conservation. I hope that he will equally help the young people learn how importand our environment is with educational programs. Birds are delicate. I know I have taken care of them all my life.
