1. Report.
Tuesday evening, May 28, 2013, I visited the Destroyed Nesting Area of the Charles River White Geese, north of the Charles River, east of the BU Bridge, Cambridge, MA, USA.
The limited corrections achieved by Jennifer Wright Letoureau, Director of the Cambridge Conservation Commission continue to be respected.
Jennifer has done what she can within the extreme limits set by the Cambridge City Council. Jennifer is to be commended.
The Department of Conservation and Recreation, the railroad, the City of Cambridge, the fraudulent groups which enable the outrages, and irresponsible “journalist” coverage of various con games continue to be worthy of the opposite. (“Frauds” is a more accurate word than “con games,” taking everything into context.) (While the Cambridge Chronicle continues to publish nonsense while suppressing letters reflecting reality.)
[05-38, DNA; 04 92, CRWG, Railroad Workers]
The Charles River White Geese are resting in that tiny part of their home which is protected by Cambridge’s restriction of state environmental protections. The vehicles belong to railroad workers. The white pick up truck was apparently up on the tracks to the right when I came. The staircase illegally installed by Boston University which directly connects to where they should be parking is under the trees beyond the white pick up truck.
[05-28, DNA; 05 93, By the Charles]
A number of members of the Charles River White Geese are communing with the environment just off the Charles River. These small trees are a little bit east of the BU Bridge. All ground vegetation here and through major parts of the areas east of the BU Bridge has been destroyed by the Charles River “Conservancy” acting for the DCR. The fraudulent “protective” con games by the Cambridge Machine defends these outrages by lying that they are defending the Charles River and telling people there is nothing to be concerned about except for one old building which has been opened to the public once in the last eighty years.
[05-28, DNA; 06 94 Native Vegetation, Native Plastic]
This photo is taken from a spot slightly north of the last photo and looking in the opposite direction.
The excellent green vegetation to the right is one of the very few pieces of native ground vegetation which have not been destroyed by the friends of the Cambridge Machine. In the middle of the photo is a black plastic wall which remains from the BU Bridge repairs finished how long ago. With the usual fraud of the bad guys, I am confident that they would call this stuff “native” and the Cambridge Machine, with a straight face, would vouch for the lie.
To the left is the 50 foot buffer to the east of the BU Bridge which was destroyed as part of that project. Vegetation above and to the left of the plastic has been introduced by the DCR. The DCR and its robots almost certainly would lie that the introduced stuff is “native” and the native stuff is “introduced." There is a very great danger that the DCR will simply allow their introduced stuff to grow and grow and grow, as they have with the wall they have created blocking off the Magazine Beach playing fields from the water.
The Cambridge Machine is fighting for expansion of the outrages at Magazine Beach and to keep the existing outrages. The DCR’s explanation of the wall starving the Charles River White Geese by keeping them from feeding at Magazine Beach is incompetence. They claim they are not capable of chopping down bushes.
The Machine? Well, they are so busy with fraudulent meetings, it is very silly to worry about whatever they say.
[05-28, DNA; 07 96 on ramp, Correct parking]
To the left is the Memorial Drive overpass. To the right is the on ramp to Memorial Drive. The trees to the right could be the trees you see in the background of the first photo.
The Charles River White Geese cross this ramp to get to the tiny amount of food not taken from them.
The railroad workers should be parking here. The illegally installed staircase is pretty close to being to the right of the white car.

Longfellow / Kendall, Cambridge, MA, USA - Update on Tree Destruction

1. Update on Coming Tree Destruction
We recently reported on the pending destruction of excellent trees adjacent to the Memorial Drive ramp to the west of the Main Street / Broadway in Cambridge, MA, USA, at http://charlesriverwhitegeeseblog.blogspot.com/2013/05/large-number-of-excellent-trees.html.
A strong supporter has been in contact with Stephanie Boundy of the MassDOT Accelerated Bridges Program.
Ms. Boundy states as follows:
**********
The yellow ribbon with a paint mark on the tree means that the tree is removed in phase 1. The yellow ribbon with no paint mark means the tree will be removed in a later phase. The trees with green ribbon are trees that are going to be transplanted.
**********
This translates as 6 excellent trees to be destroyed imminently, five excellent trees to be moved, and two excellent trees on the Cambridge bound side of the street to be destroyed in the near future.
This makes MassDOT not as irresponsible as the City of Cambridge and the Department of Conservation and Recreation. That lower level of irresponsibility is no surprise, but nothing to be proud of.

I have been swamped. My next report, hopefully this afternoon, will pass on photos from the Destroyed Nesting Area with its continued destructive parking by railroad workers with explicit approval by DCR. That destruction has been lessened by Jennifer of the Cambridge Conservation Commission.
I also have worked for nearly a week on a report on the pending totally irresponsible destruction of 22 to 100 excellent trees in the Harvard Square / Cambridge Common / Flagstaff Park part of Cambridge, MA, USA. I took photos over a three day period at the end of last week. That may commence with general photos.
For people listening to Boston Sierra Club endorsements of environmentally destructive members of the Cambridge City Council, you should be aware that there are Cambridge Machine activists very active in the Boston Sierra Club.
