I too was privileged to spend many hours in the field with Jeff and learned
a lot. While our relationship had deteriorated significantly in the last
couple of years as a result of certain strongly held objections concerning
North American Birds, I will always respect him for his hours in the field,
his great storytelling, and his incredible eyes.
Since I was in Memphis for a conference, I decided to make a quick trip to
the Pits this morning as a sort of tribute to the Ol' Coot. Not a lot
there, but knowing how much he loved watching raptors down there, he would
have thoroughly enjoyed the crippling looks I had of an imm. dark-morph
HARLAN'S HAWK. Two GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GEESE were also hanging around.
Shortly after that, I banded an AHY-F Rufous Hummingbird in Memphis.
