Good Morning all...this appeared on Kentucky's version of TN-bird yesterday.  
Thought you all would find it interesting and if you live on the Kentucky 
border might want to attend one of these meetings.

Also please remember that the deadline for submitting comments in Tennessee is 
fast approaching...January 19th...if you have not done so please take a minute 
to do it.  And the meetings to decide on the Proposed Sandhill Crane Hunt in 
Tennessee will take place on Jan. 20 & 21 in Nashville.  If at all possible 
PLEASE make plans to join us at those meetings.  

Good snowy birding,
Cyndi Routledge
