I do have the proper permits and they are much appreciated for educational purposes at Frostburg State University. There is space for a museum in our new science building, which is currently being constructed, and we could really put the specimens to good use. Thank you very much to all of you that have contributed in the past! If you find a (regrettably) dead bird in good condition, please put cotton in the mouth, put it in a sealed bag in the freezer ASAP, and mark your name (or whoever collected it), the date collected, cause of death (if known), and the location collected on the bag with a permanent marker (preferred), or on a paper in the bag. You can contact me by e-mail (gbrewer@frostburg.edu) and I will arrange a pick-up. Thanks again, and please contact me if you have any questions- Gwen Brewer ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
