[Maine-birds] Nesting interference

I hate to say this, but the only way to prevent the type of continued interference at the Mississippi Kite nest in New Hampshire is not to report the nest.  To anyone.  It's a shame, but there are too many people, including some birders, who only care about their own photographs and/or bird lists.  I'm not criticizing anyone on this list, it's just a constant problem with rarities, and not only here in the U.S.  This kite is common enough in the American south that it's easy to find.  Even in cities such as Baton Rouge (I went to LSU, so I know.)

Sorry, but to me the birds are more important.
