I know some of you been wondering why I haven't post much since new year weekend.   I receive rude text from unknown birder during o.c. cbc tally about rejecting me from any and all details to record committee and refuse me to go birding for unknown reason.      If I find out who did this, will call police for that matters.     I'm tired of birders being giving me hard time again.     I just gave up MOS license plate and pay extra for that d*** chesapeake bay plate this week.
