>Hello Wallace,
>Thanks for forwarding the message to me.  I think you know that I was
>extremely impressed by my contacts with the Bristol Bird Club -- such a
>dynamic organization, with a huge amount of expertise and with such a
>responsible attitude.  I admire the club's active approach to field
>ornithology, to helping and educating the members and the public, and to
>paying close attention to the environment.  Kudos to you for your strong
>leadership role there.

>When I met Troy Ettel last year and he told me how Tennessee birders had
>pitched in to help conservation in such a major way, I was impressed but
>not totally surprised, based on what I already knew about the Bristol
>group and some friends elsewhere in the state.  Seems to me that people
>in other states could learn a thing or two from the community of birders
>and field ornithologists in Tennessee.

>I hope all's going well for you and I hope I'll get to see you next
