Good morning, everyone – A few weeks back, I let several birding friends know about an article I had in the newest issue of Birdwatching magazine. I’ve received many wonderful responses, including several from Vermont birders whom I hadn’t contacted but who had seen the article in their own copies of the magazine. At the end of my article, the editors asked readers to comment about where they fit on the continuum between Bird-Watchers and Bird-Getters (the two terms I suggested). If anyone is interested, responses are posted at http://cs.birdwatchingdaily.com/brd/b/field_of_view/archive/2012/07/24/bird-watcher-or-bird-getter.aspx I’m particularly excited that Donald Kroodsma responded! He’s one of my birding heroes, the author of the amazing The Singing Life of Birds and The Language of Song. You don’t have to be a subscriber to read the magazine’s blog, but you do to read the original article. I’d be delighted to send the text to anyone who would like to read it. Maeve Kim Jericho Center
