Folks, I whole heartedly accept Rick Blom's apology. Thank You! I point out his recent posts on the Franklin's Gull and Brewer's Blackbird are well describe the birds and situations quite well and are very interesting. Wish I could be there as Harford County seems like a great place for migrants. If it were possible, I wish Rick's kindness should go rewarded. Perhaps we can elevate him to the Grand Pooh-bah of the Loyal Order Of Water Buffalos! (It was a Fred Flinstone thing Rick) Or the equivalent of such for birding! Ha! But in all seriousness, thanks again. Kurt Gaskill
