I must be showing my age. Back in the stone age when we used main frame computers it was preached to us to use "shorthand" whenever possible to save space and I cant get out of the habit. Thanks for leading me down the right path. Very slow here on the Island right now only new thing to report is the abundance of GREEN-WINGED TEAL staging up for there return to the pot-holes up north. I am seeing and hearing more and more BLACK-CROWNED NIGHT-HERONS each evening and morning and quite a few CLAPPER RAILS in the early morning calling back and forth to each other in the marsh.
