That's 219,000 acres. Not a lot, especially by passenger pigeon range standards. One plantation adjoining me is almost one third that size.

As KY Jon alluded to, it was a "perfect storm" of monumental proportions that was the culmination of so many factors. Still sad to me. Sad that we cannot see those flocks blacken the shy for many hours at the time.
