[TN-Bird] Re: Ceruleans and TWRA

Thank you very much for this reminder.  I have sent a letter to TWRA on this 
issue and hope that everyone on this network does the same.  No voice should 
not go unheard- please everyone write.  Thanks again Devereux Joslin for 
giving us this information and please keep up the good work.
