Don, Be careful what you ask for. I borrowed the Talbott magnet once and now all of these unusual species show up in my yard and around my pond. I can't get any work done because I am constantly grabbing my binoculars to check them out. It has caused me to let part of my property grow up in weeds and thickets to get them to stay. I catch myself not picking the cherries or the blueberries on our property so the birds can have them. I have strange people wanting to come and bird my property. One strange guy comes from Bristol regularly. My wife has threatened to leave me if I don't do something besides hang out the window to watch and photograph birds. My neighbors think I'm strange because they see me out walking with binoculars, camera and listening devices around my neck, so be prepared for the consequences if you borrow it, and I can only imagine the disastrous results if you used it twice :) Roger Mayhorn ----- Original Message ----- From: Don Carrier To: 'Buchanan Birds' Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 5:53 PM Subject: [bcbirdclub] Re: Snowy Egret - Buchanan County - May 27, 2008 Any chance I could borrow or rent the Talbott bird magnet?
