Subject: [MDOSPREY] Article on the Killing of Birds

 **
The July 26th issue of the New Yorker magazine has a lengthy, informative,
and very disturbing article on the wanton killing of millions of migrating
European songbirds, for fun and profit, in Cyprus, Malta, and Italy.  It is
titled "Emptying the Skies,' and starts on page 48.  If you are curious and
courageous, you might want to have a look at it.
