Hello all, Let me know if this is too off-topic for the MN list, but I was wondering what other's thoughts are on the release of this info. What bothers me is how secret this was kept -- why? Why are there well-made videos available on the same day of the release? Why wasn't the info released as it was found? It all feels more political than scientific or birder-like to me.
Don't get me wrong, I'm really excited about this -- the IBW has intrigued me greatly ever since I was about 8 years old. What wonderful news! BTW, I've finally put up a real website! To see a lot of my bird photos, use the access code "MOU". There are 70 species there now and many more to come. Since it's new, let me know if you encounter problems. Thanks!
