Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" The Maryland/DC Records Committee has received a report of a sighting of = a Chukar on March 24, 2000 at Chesapeake Center, near Port Deposit, Cecil County. I agreed with the submitter that this might provide an opportuni= ty to get some more information as to the status of Chukar in Maryland. Are these birds being released in any organized way? Are they kept in privat= e collections with the possibility of escape? How often are they being see= n currently? Any information will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
