I've been putting water out for the birds, bugs and critters, front and
back. I saw an overheated crow our last real hot day. I was surprised it
didn't just fly over to the nearby creek.

I JUST put fresh water in my birdbath and was thinking of putting another
one out for the weekend!

Love Roger's list of ideas --- LOL.
Slightly off topic of birds, but with the hot weather, let's not forget
that our pollinators as well as birds need some water, too.

Agreed! Wow, The numbers really tell the story, let’s get some action
here, don’t blame H.
Anybody want to start something on cats, unhealthy suet, guns, extreme
record heat, impact of fireworks, poor Douglas Fir cone crop developing,
bullying, proper use of herbicides, etc.
Seriously it’s been too quiet!

If there's a problem here, it seems to be that very few BOO subscribers
are making an effort to post content or start conversations.
I don't begrudge Harry for his postings. He may be the one person keeping
this list alive. If it weren't for his postings (monetized or not), weeks
could go by without a single BOO digest showing up in my in-box.
Looking at these numbers:
June 2021: 9 posts, 6 from this person.
May 2021: 9 posts, 5 from this person
April 2021: 7 posts, 5 from this person
let me suggest, the real problem is the lack of postings by other BOO
subscribers. It's not like there's any lack of conservation topics or
birding-related social issues that we could be discussing. 5 or 6 postings
per month from one person is not that much. Why is everyone else being so
quiet?
