MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit MDH pointed out the article "Turn Left at the Ring-Billed Gull...." in today's Washington Post (3/10/03, page C2) about VA birding/wildlife trail guides. It was the first I'd seen of this sort of guide - and free! http://www.dgif.state.va.us/wildlife/vbwt/index.asp Since he's a driver and I'm more the birder (tho he is tolerant and learning), it's a winning idea. I can certainly imagine a similar guide for MD, and for the area East of DC into Delmarva shores and up toward NJ/Cape May. Do any of our advanced and connected MDOsprey birders know of a similar guide for these areas, or of one being worked on? other than this.... http://www.recreation.gov/advancedsearch.cfm?wildlifeviewing=1&states=MD thanks, lee-ann, glendale, MD ... looking forward to nurturing a new shared interest w/mdh as we creep toward our 60s.... ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
