[QUOTE="ChuckC, post: 2445785, member: 6218"] I did some work on a guys house in south Missouri that had created three ponds in a row kind of stepping down the valley where his house was by damming a small creek. I commented on how cool they were to a local guy who was working with me and he said, " Yeah, he almost got his ass in a sling over that after the last dam busted and caused a little flash flood downstream" He said while officials were out inspecting the property one of them noticed an eagle sitting in a tree nearby and pointed it out. The owner said " They have been nesting there for a couple of years now since I built the ponds" After that they told him he couldn't alter anything that would disturb the eagles. Not sure how accurate this is coming from an alcoholic hillbilly but it was a good story. [/QUOTE]
