Easy. Send the rego in to Melb Water. Or the cops.

Subject: [Norton AntiSpam] [Birding-Aus] Red-caps. at Truganina.
On 1/Nov/2008 I met a woman at Truganina Swamp,Altona,who was monitoring
several pairs of nesting Red-capped Plovers for a university study.
This afternoon I was dismayed to see two grown men almost trampling on
little Red-caps as they played with two remote-controlled toy cars,driving
them all over the area favoured by the plovers for nesting.
They also had a supply of alcohol with them.When they left by clambouring
over the Melbourne Water fence,they did so while still clutching their
precious stubbies.They got into a Ute and drove off,no doubt to return.
I noted the reg.number,but what can be done?
This area is clearly signed by Melbourne water as a conservation area with a
request to keep out.
I have so far only counted 4 Red-caps this year,when in the past there has
been 10 or so.I think I've found the reason for the decline.
