[Bristol-Birds] Elizabethton Bird Club meeting

     The Lee and Lois Herndon Chapter of the Tennessee Ornithological 
Society, often called the Elizabethton Bird Club (EBC), will meet on Tuesday, 
April 01, (no fooling!) at 7 PM in the Science Building on the Milligan 
College campus.
     A few of the topics and upcoming events to be discussed by the group 
are:  (1) The Spring Banquet, which will be this coming Friday, April 4 at 
5:30 PM at Stringers Restaurant in Elizabethton - (2) The Spring Bird Count, 
which will be Saturday, April the 26 - (3)The Roan Mtn. Naturalists Rally on 
May 2-4  - (4) The TOS Spring  Meeting in Knoxville, also May 2-4  - (5) 
Establishment of a Nominating Committee in preparation for election of new 
officers  - (6) Planning for Field Trips  - (7) et al...
     The featured program at this month's meeting will be a homespun affair, 
in that members are invited to bring their favorite bird song recordings to 
discuss and compare.  If you have an easily portable player for whatever type 
of recording you use, CD, cassette tape, phonograph (remember those?), it 
might be good to bring it, as I am not sure what we might have available at 
the meeting room.  Perhaps this review will edify those seeking to make their 
first purchase of a good bird recording.  And hopefully we will begin to hone 
our audio birding skills in time for the coming neotropical migrant influx.
     Also, for the enjoyment of the hearing impaired and lip-reading members 
like myself, volunteers will be solicited for the first annual birdsong 
lip-synching contest, the winner of which I am sure will be greatly sought 
out for parties and social occasions!  (I'm putting my money on Larry, the 
Pish Master ;-)   
     See ya' at the meetin'
