["Terry Anderson" <tpaulanderson@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have been trying to use the birdlist to provide plans for a kestel nest 
box I have. Anyone interested shoud contact me and I will send you the 
design. It works, I had a pair use it last March, needs to go up by March 1 
or so as I put it up too late in April two years ago.
