Fellow Birders;
Thanks for the overwhelming (and rapid!) response to my query re: owl
roosting locations. This reminds me of how much I loved being a part of this
community for many years-- its members have always been generous to a fault,
and I've tried to approach my life and birding business in Panama with NYS as a
model. By sharing knowledge we help each other grow, and indeed learn a bit
ourselves each time we teach!
I have more than enough information, and one field trip lined up-- thank you
all for the various offers, I will send a private thank you when I come up for
air.... Thank you to Jesse for the glowing words (although he exaggerates the
number of recordings I've shared!)-- it always warms my heart when I meet a
birder on a trail in Panama, introduce myself, and they say, "I know you-- I
have 50 of your recordings on my I-Pod!". Jesse, I'm glad my recordings were
of some use-- were those your bands I saw on the ST Wrens at Nusagandi? I'm
actually co-authoring a CD of Panama bird sounds-- but I'll keep giving away
all the data as well! By the way, I have guided a few New Yorkers in Panama,
and encountered others in the field-- I'm not officially guiding due to
potential medical issues, but I am joining field trips on a friendly basis, and
giving away free trip advice (as I always have). One of the respondants to the
owling query in fact had some Panama-related questions, that!
's my next note-- I help anybody who asks, but New Yorkers get special
attention! Thanks again to all for the owling advice, I will post regarding
results in a few days.
Cheers,
Ken Allaire
