Andy, et al.

About every five years, I sound off about this ... there are many places
around the state where viewing platforms would greatly augment our
birdwatching abilities, and in some case, enhance personal safety. A few
examples come to mind ... the North Beach marsh in Calvert County (lots of
traffic and no shoulder), the former "Westinghouse Pond" next to the Bay
Bridge, Oxbow Lake Preserve in Russet/Laurel. I'm sure there are tons more.

"Viewing platforms" could be a great project for MOS to advocate, perhaps
with funds and labor.
