Redbud Audubon Society questions some of the findings in the biological report for UP 20-75. The type of mistakes, that may seem trivial, like spotting a bird never recorded in Lake County at the time of the survey makes us question the overall thoroughness and veracity of these reports. They mention only nine species of birds seen “directly or indirectly,” What does that even mean? They say the only tree species in the area were Valley Oak and Black Walnut. Do they know their trees as well as they know their birds? We question this finding too. It seems odd there are no other types of trees on this property Let’s slow down the approval of these projects until some thorough investigation can be done on the validity of these reports.
