Some of you may be interested in reading the new articles on the GMAS
website. There you will find an article by Carl Runge about a family of
Long-eared Owls born and bred in a Williston neighborhood last year, a description
of a Blue Jay/ Merlin encounter (hint: the Blue Jay lost) by Alison
Wagner, and some musings on decoy collecting as a form of indoor birding by yours
truly. There is also an article from the National Audubon Society
announcing the re-opening of ornithology programs on Hog Island in Maine.
 
Also, on the Home page Shirley Johnson has summarized the results of the
Burlington CBC this year. To get there, the address is
_http://greenmountainaudubon.org_ (http://greenmountainaudubon.org) then click the Hermit Thrush
link.
 
Enjoy-
