For those intersted in Central Park birds
I was sad to read of  Starr Sapphir's  passing. I remember her well from my
own Central Park birding, years ago.
One can watch“Birders: The Central Park
Effect.”<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIewN_hfMLc>on HBO

Dear Linnaean Member:****

****

Starr Saphir’s passing and the resulting gap it creates is something we all
recognize.   Starr’s obituary in the N Y Times was excellent and Sandra
Paci deserves thanks for getting the article published in the Times.****

****

Between now and the spring celebration in Central Park for Starr (plans are
underway and will be announced soon) we would like to publish an issue of
the News-Letter containing long or short notes from members who knew Starr
and would like to contribute to this publication.  Please send your
submissions by March 12th. You can describe something that happened on one
of Starr’s walks, an interaction with Starr, something you remember about
her.  Through our combined  efforts we will remember Starr in different
ways and, I hope, achieve a many sided picture of her as she was in the
park, in the classroom and at meetings .****

****

Thank you for your efforts!  Please send them to:****
