The driftless area correspondents have been active lately in tipping me off to stories. First, one about a plague of botulism that is killing waterfowl in the Great Lakes. Invasive mussels and gobies have been a scourge for loons and other ducks.
Second, a story about the little-known Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge. I haven't had a chance to explore this area, but it seems enticing. I have seen a bald eagle perched off I-75.
Last, a story about five things about squirrels. Most interesting here is that there is a Squirrel Defamation League, sort of an anti-driftless area. The SDL is currently in an uproar about a squirrel that attacked a 3-year-old in Florida.
