This was positively brilliant! And I was so taken in that I was jumping for joy that I could now count Oregon Junco - until I got to the crossbills. Then I said to myself, "you've been had!" But, oh, what a great joke!!!

Ok, I said "please don't shoot the messenger" and I meant it. 
 
The first word of my post forwarding the ABA blog site was "today" which is  
April Fool's Day. 
 
I thought the ABA April Fool's joke was especially good, so I forwarded it  
to MDOsprey.  I myself liked adding 
Iceland to the ABA area. 
 
Apologies for any who went apoplectic because of the lumps and splits  
mentioned in the blog without clicking on that last referral.

ps:  On the same April Fool's topic, this morning my daughter sent me 2  
sonograms of a future grandchild.  So I called her 
immediately  ...  she was not fooling!
