Dear Fellow Birders, This morning Fran and I leave for Cape May to spend the weekend searching for migrants and other goodies and to join our team, the Maryland Yellowthroats, at the Victory Brunch on Sunday morning. To date we have received pledges cumulating to $7.45. and outright donations totalling to $1,040. I will continue to accept pledges and donations right up until next week's Annual Conference in Garrett County. Thanks to all of you who have made this short-notice endeavour a real success this year! Cheers, Norm Saunders ============= Norm Saunders Vice-President, MD Ornithological Society Editor, The Maryland Yellowthroat Listowner, MDOsprey, the Maryland Birding Discussion List http://www2.ari.net/osprey/mdosprey/mdosprey.html Colesville, MD osprey@ari.net
