Subject: [Bristol-Birds] OF NORTHEAST TENNESSEE COMING SOON !!!!! CALL FOR PHOTOGRAPHS The BIRDS of Northeast Tennessee An Annotated Checklist by Richard L. Knight rknight8@xxxxxxxxxxxxx 2008 Second Edition Work on the second edition of the 1994 book is moving at an exciting pace. As we draw close to the final art design and production at the printer's, it is with great pride that we announce Mike Poe mpoe@xxxxxxx has joined the editorial team as the photo editor. His reputation and skills as a bird photographer are amazing. His knowledge of the technical aspects are of great value. All of this comes on the heels of a visit to our printers at Universal Printing. There we learned that a full color book is within our means. That is fabulous news. The binding will be state of the art. Projections are that the press run will be much larger than in 1994. NOW, THERE IS A CALL FOR PHOTOGRAPHS FROM BIRDERS THROUGHOUT THE REGION: RULES: 1, All photos must be your original work and not that of anyone else. 2. All photos must be taken in one or more of the five counties of "Northeast Tennessee" which includes Carter, Johnson, Sullivan, Washington and Unicoi. 3.
