I couldn't agree more with Jim. This isn't about us, it's about the bird. We are not rejoicing because now or next week we can put another check on our life list, but because one of the earth's creatures has had enough gumption to survive the human onslaught against all odds. Each of us must do whatever we can to keep that survival a reality. David Mathers Manassas, VA You are subscribed to VA-BIRD.
