Late to the party, but I got the joke. I've been a fan of Edward Abbey
for, well, all of my adult life.
I appreciate the humor.

There was a real Al Sarvis who was a close buddy of Edward Abbey so I
think this qualifies as humor.
I got the link from the Facebook bird misidentification group …

Someone with a [warped?] sense of humor posted a supposed Brambling from
on Sunday, only an hour before sunrise.

“Was glassing around the compound through my scope. Saw a bird that

I don’t see any other checklists from there since Dec. 17th. I don’t
address. Russ Namitz, Dave Irons and Shawneen Finnegan have access to
that. A comparison of that address to the OBOL membership files might prove
to be interesting. I trust the record will be invalidated as soon as one
of the above review it.
