Good news for next year’s nesting birds at Rockport Beach Park. The City of Rockport is making plans to add a gate and fencing to block off the nesting area during high water when birds are forced onto the roadway. More warning signs will be placed around the area and a decrease in the speed limit of the small loop road will also add to the birds’ safety. There have still not been any arrests made in the July 1st killing of 39 Black Skimmer chicks but the case is still active.
