eagles may soon disappear from our countryside economist suntribune september 14 1988 c13 art briggsjude correspondent that eagles are not for everybody has been obvious throughout the pages of history past and present symbolized by the early romans and revered by the in dians they were widely por trayed in myth and folklore as potential hazards to children and livestock and for every falconer that ad mired their strength of wing and talon a hundred gunners and gamekeepers would blast them out of existence when canada and the united states realized the dangers of ddt type pesticides to eagles and other forms of fish and wildlife these chemicals were banned however mexico and many of the third world countries did not do the same while all factions of outdoor participants now realize the beauty and benefits of these majestic birds there are still some uninformed or balloon- minded individuals who shoot them today the eagle is still held on its ancestral pillar in the spirit of most of the native people yet there are some band members encouraged by the lucrative eagle feather market who will cooperate with their unscrupulous white brothers to kill eagles also in recent months the threat to the remnants of on tarios original forest canopy so necessary for raptors such as the bald eagles has appeared if all the public were absolutely sure the ministry of natural resources proposed timber management plan had seriously considered all of the components of the forest besides just timber when it was introduced such op position as the madawaska trust would never have surfaced no eagles are not for everybody because they are free spirited creatures that insist on keeping at least one foothold on their wild domain the size of these large birds 1 standing about 30 inches high and having a wingspan of some six to seven feet is in itself an indicator that they need a lot of room to operate thirtyfive years ago there were as many as 15 pairs in a 20mile radius of the rideau lakes today there may be as few as four nests in all of south eastern ontario the atlas of the breeding birds of ontario sug gests the current number of breeding bald eagles south of a line drawn roughly from the up per ottawa river to the northern parts of georgian bay and lake huron may be as few as 12 pairs markham firm wins 6 awards markhambased jhf produc tions canada limited has been named winner of six merit awards in the 1988 printing in dustries of america graphic arts awards competition the event drew over 7600 en tries in 52 categories from prin ting and graphic arts firms around the world the announcement was made by pia inc which is cosponsor and coordinator of the 38-year- old program designed to recognize outstanding achieve ment in print

the pia graphic arts awards competi tion seeks to recognize the ac complishment of the print com munications team every per son who helped guide a printed piece from concept to finished product and i congratulate jhf productions for their award- winning works of course we are very pleased at this honor and think it reflects the kind of work our staff always strives to produce said john h foley president of jhf produc tions canada limited the com petition helps lis tremendously to promote our service when six pieces youve produced are judg ed against the finest in the world and then each of those six pieces wins an award like this it really makes a statement about the capabilities of your firm yet the presence of a suitable nesttree in close proximity to water is not in itself enough in ducement to cause an eagle to reside to accomodate the growing situation where eagles and humans conflict a socalled buf fer zone is set up but just how other than by the topography of the land a close monitoring system or a chain link fence are people etc kept out of such a sen sitive zone then again what if this buffer zone encompasses part of the lake how do you pre vent boat traffic from entering this buffer zone theres no doubt there are eagles for those interested in them in new york state and in southwestern ontario where they have been reintroduced and while bald eagles may be seen wintering along the st lawrence river theres every possibility they wont be summer residents around wolfe lake north of kingston much longer a planned 13house subdivision near an eagles nest in
