Glover to take up the issue. even
though they agree Naval's house
expansion might be less intrusive than
other options.
"It may be that this design is a bet-

members at Tuesday's meeting.
But approving the exemption
would only encouragehomeowner:s.to

gamble for exemptions with a bulkier

Finally, a solution to the crow commotion
I nteresting story in the news.
Interesting lf you're a crow,
that is, or worry about crows.
I myself fall into the latter cattt-
gory. As you know, I have written
on ~ese very pages about the dis-
tur.bmgly large populations of
crows that besiege, bother, harass
and otherwise annoy various
neighborhoods across the land of
Newport-Mesa, ll\!.ne inclt>ded.
And as you may rfleall, my most
recent mention of the nasty little
beasts -who have been a symbol
of death and destruction around
the world for thousands of years
but don't let that prejudice you -
was a tale of how I watched with
great joy as an owl who lives on
our block tu.med on a crow who
was harassmg him, and beat him
like a bongo. I cheered.
So imagine my surprise, just
days ago, as 1 was riding along in
my motor car listening to Nabonal
Public Radio, when the announcer
said: ·Next, the story ol a town
besieged by crows that bied
everything ... and finally found
something that worked I•
Hmm. "Could it be?" I said to
myself. Did we and the crows go
national? Not exactly. Welcome to
Chatham, Ontario. A lot of us tend
to equate anything in Canada with
the Arctic Circle, but in fact,
Chatham is virtually a suburb of
Detroit, which is only 40 miles
away, as the crow flies. Sorry. But
what d~ that mean anyway?
What the heck do flying crows
have to do with distance?
Intetestingly enough, Chatham
is a city of 110,000 -almost
Peter Buffo
COMMENTS & CURIOSITIES
exactly the population of Costa
Mesa. And bow many crows? OK,
a teensy weensy bit more than we
have. At last count (and they do
cowit them, every 90 days) just
below 300,000. That's about three
crows for every Chalhamite.
(Chathamanian? Chathamoid?
Whatever.) The point is, Chatham
-the Canadian capital or cawing
cacophony -was under siege.
The birds were everywhere. and
they were ravenous. (You may as
well laugh. I can't stop.)
The city called in biologists,
ornithologists and a few other-olo-
gists, all of whom stroked their
chins, f!Jought deep thoughts and
finally declared that Chatham had
become a stop on a migratory
route for crows from all over East-
ern Canada.
"OK, fine," said the Chathama-
nians, "but what do we do a-boot
it, eh?"
Hmm. An awkward pause. It
seems that once you becofne a hub
airport for migrating things, your fate
is sealed until the things get bored

8.hd move on. But the little town d
Clatham refused to gtve in. 1be
Oiethamites stood their ground,
looked skyward and shook their fists
at the blackhearted blackbirds.
First, they tried air guns -big,
"poofing" things that look like BB
guns on steroids. The crows
laughed. Then they hired hunters
with real guns -shotguns,· to be
exact -to do the deed. The
crows weren't laughing. But nei-
ther were the townspeople. Inno-
cent bystander birds were being
hurt, and the sporadic shotgun
blasts were unnerving.
Someone decided that shirung
spotlights on trees through the night
was just what the orruthologist
ordered. 1be aows didn't lose any
sleep over it, but the people sure
did. Hangmg deceased crows in the
trees was the next gambit, which
accomplished nothing, but did gross
everyone out, except the crows,
who found it maudlin but mtriguing.
My personal favorite was play-
ing tapes of ·crows in distress"
trom sound trucks. The tapes made
the crows feel just terrible, but not
terrible enough to leave. What do
you suppose is on the •crows in
distress" tapes? Are there spooky
crow sounds, or is it some crow
saeanung, "Help! I've fallen and I
can't get up,• over and over?
The Chathamoids were
despondent. But finally, after so
many dismal failures, they found
the answer. Anfi, surprisingly, it
leads back to my recent tale of the
owl and the crow. A man from
nearby Geotgetown, Ontario, con-
tacted the city and said, "Got
crows? We'I, I got what you need.•
The man was practiced in one of
the world's oldest sports, the origi-
nal "sport of kings." He was a fal-
coner. His equipment was a heavy
leather glove, some bits of raw
meat and an lffipressive roster of
hawks, falcons and (drum roll,
please) owls! The Chathamites
were quite pleased. Apparently,
predator blrds thoroughly enjoy
terrorizing other birds, but they
really, r~y like to smack crows
around. They have the sharpest
eyesight of any living tlung and
can pick out a parking space on
Balboa Island from two miles
away, at night, during the Christ-
mas Boat Parade. Unbelievable.
Within weeks of the falconers'
letting loose the buds of war, the
crow populabon was cut by more
than 50%. And it's not like there
were dead crows littenng the land-
scape. Crows are every bit as smart
as they are annoymg. They quickly
packed up their stuff, turned m
their keys and headed south, or
north, or west, or anywhere except
where the hawks and owls were.
So, people of Newport-Mesa,
hear me well. No shooting, po

none of those dumb "crows in dis-

to share his exi)erience
A Costa Mesa !nan who hiked 2,600 miles
up the Pad.he Crest Thall to raise awareness of
his brother's rare, and potentially fatal. blood
disease will show slides of his trek today at
The North Face store at niangle Square.
The Pilot chronicled Tony DiLorenzo's
nearly four-month trek from Mexico to tana-
da as he temporarily·sacrificed his normal life
-his job, his belongings, his. way of life and
his family -to. help his 21-year-old brother,
Paul, and others who suffer from thalassemia.
The hike ended in September, but DiLoren-
zo said his efforts to help the Cooley's Anemia
Foundation have continued. He has started a
window-waslung business and is donating a
percentage of the profits to the foundation.
DiLorenzo said he hopes his free slide
show. scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at 1870 Harbor
Blvd., Suite A, Costa Mesa, will encourage
other hikers to take sUnilar ·trips or tQ give
back to the community in other ways.
"I think the thing I gained most was my
purpose for being here on the Earth and what
I want to do with myself,• Dj.Lorenzo said. •I
gained a lot ol respect for other.individuals out
there and gained a sense of ease, of calmness
and of knowing that things change in a heart-
beat and you just have to go with the now
instead being stressed ouCor wound up .... I1
there's a minute chance I can make somebody
realize they can make a difference -and it
doesn't have to be big -I think I've made a
difference.•

which is 2-0 in league for the

The Eagles will travel to
