Recent news reports indicate that the Bird Flu virus (H5N1) has been detected in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and surrounding areas. This virus primarily impacts waterfowl and other birds that tend to flock and roost together, such as snow geese and crows.

This temporary closure is to prevent any visitors from coming into contact with sick or dead birds.
MCR is coordinating closely with state and federal wildlife agencies, and we will keep you informed about this situation on our website and Facebook page regarding when we will reopen.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding during this time.
Thank you,
MCR Management

Recently, dead or sick birds have been spotted at MCR, and we have reported these findings to the New Jersey Division of Fish & Wildlife (NJDFW) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture Animal & Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA-APHIS) for further evaluation. The NJDFW has confirmed that the virus was detected in the birds found on site.

Folks,

I’m hearing whispers in the wind about Election Day. About what might be done by some people.

My best advice - if you haven’t voted yet, vote early tomorrow.

Walz - too many people think of housing as a commodity. Then he talks about a house being a home.

Bradley Cooper is talking about the importance of women's issues. We have to keep the right for women to control their bodies out front.

@WarnerCrocker the DOJ re-indicts using a US attorney. The random choice picks a different judge.

The NY Times is lying to you.
On the left is a headline from today's Times email. It shows the true fact that a Parkinson's expert visited the White House a number of times recently, THEN talks about Biden's health.

On the right is the announcement from the Parkinson's Foundation that Biden signed a bill promoting Parkinson's research LAST WEEK. No wonder the expert was visiting the White House.

You really can't trust the media right now. #NYTimes #Biden #Lies

@JustOneMoreThing whoever can afford it best.
Alternating is a good strategy
