Dear Subscribers,
Jon Baliles the writer that wrote the posts on the following web sites
is the brother in law of Steve Osberger a Purple Martin Conservation
Association member that has been helping form the resistance movement against
the city
of Richmond to keep them from cutting the trees down on 17th Street. These
trees have been used as a premigratory roost for at least the past four years.
These posts I thought are very informative and very well written. Lets hope
a lot of people read these posts as it would be good both for the birds and
the merchants in Shockoe Bottom.
