Wow, that is a great story and something that young boy will never ever forget!!
One of my goals this year is to get a "young birders" club going....under the umbrella of the Cayuga Bird Club. I wonder if your neighbor would be interested in something like this. and I don't have anything actually worked out yet. But if anyone knows anyone, let me know. I think the first step would be to generate a list of interested youngsters. Thanks Bill, for sharing this with us all. It is a wonderful image to cling to. Linda Orkin Ithaca...
