Hi folks,

Thought I'd take this opportunity to mention a
good book I just started reading.  Having not
finished it (read 3 chapters, looked at all the
graphics, skimmed the rest, so far) I can't say a
whole lot about it, but _Gatherings of Angels -
Migrating Birds and Their Ecology_ which is
edited by Kenneth P. Able seems to be a very good
overview of migration.  First 2 chapters, written
by Able, are an overview of "What we already
know" sort of stuff - a great way to bone-up. 
The rest are by other experts and cover specific
research venues.

Oh, and I saw a Goshawk today - over my
girlfriend's mother's house in SE PA.

Charlie
