This is often overlooked and doesn't seem to be encouraged on some counts. Thanks for helping bring new birders into the fold and getting them field time and experience with seasoned birders. Keep up the great work. If you haven't signed up for the MOS Conference 2000 in Hagerstown, from May 19 - 21, don't wait too long. The Conference Planning Committee has an exciting weekend planned for you. If you have any thoughts or ideas about the MOS Conference, feel free to contact me. I look forward to meeting you in Hagerstown. Naturally, Mike Callahan MOS Conference Chairman On Thu, 27 Jan 2000 09:23:32 EST Mary-Jo Betts writes: > Attn: MDOSPREYERS > > If you have not yet signed up to help with the 15th Howard County > Midwinter > Count, there is still time to join the fun on Saturday, February 5, > 2000. > Count with another birder or go out alone.
