Aren't birders wonderful? I received replies from 16 of you--all with the same basic information, and some with some extra helpful tips. Lisa, Vida, and I thank you very much.--also good to hear from some friends that have known me for some time. BUT Bud Pulliam, you made my day! I'm 84 years old, and climbing fences is definitely in my past now; but you give me courage to think maybe just one more ( a very low one with no barb wire, and NEVER, NEVER to flush a rare bird) I do have a scope and will practice my best birding manners. Again, all replies much appreciated--perhaps, I'll see some of you there. Ruth Luckado Tullahoma, Tn luck@xxxxxxxxx P.S. I did finally get a Pine Siskin at my thistle feeder two days ago, along with a Yellow-rump, and a Pine Warbler =================NOTES TO SUBSCRIBER===================== The TN-Bird Net requires you to SIGN YOUR MESSAGE with first and last name, CITY (TOWN) and state abbreviation.
