I am not sure how ABA milks all of the state lists. I don’t think OBOL does
anything special for them. The moderator might know.
In recent years we have had two moderators for convenience, which is especially
helpful if one of them is on vacation and some problem arises. Right now we
only have one owing to Dave Lauten’s retirement after very long and helpful
service.

Thanks, Alan. But it appears that the photo attachments aren't going through
to the ABA viewing website. They are working when directly looking at the
OBOL archives or receiving the posts directly from OBOL by E-Mail. The only
thing showing from my post on the ABA site, is a long string of data. The
other post on OBOL with a photo, doesn't show it on the ABA site, either.
Maybe someone can figure out how to post photos in a different way? Or
perhaps OBOL can arrange to relay them to ABA in a new way, so as to carry
the photos correctly?

After 16 years of maintaining a well-stocked feeding table in my backyard,
which has a large jungle of trees, shrubs and smaller plants covering the
back half of my lot, a covey of 9 Valley Quail moved in two months ago. I
saw a small covey here briefly the first year, but they didn't stay. I've
had a chance to study and photograph them through an open window. Their
system of alertness and instant departure seems among the best of all birds.
Several neighbors' cats have tried their utmost, but have had no success in
catching them. The almost solid cover of trees shrouds the feeder, so it
isn't a good target for hawks. I'm writing this as an excuse to try
attaching a photo for the first time, as an attachment. There's many more
photos and videos of them on my Flickr Photostream.
