I have a theory that I would kile some knowledgable reaction to. It seems to
me that the "hands" or deformities created by hemlock misltetoe would be
excellent platforms for marbled murrelet nests. They are often near the
outside of the crowns and therefore provide fairly easy access for these
birds as they are not noted for agility. What does the literature say? What
do people think?
