ABA Code of ethics: http://www.aba.org/about/ethics.html I guess per ABA that I should not have used the recording as it is a heavily birded area and a rare bird. It is something I use sparingly on the whole, however I will be more mindful in the future. My apologies to anyone that my use of a recording (played once) might have offended. Cathy Sheeter Ft.
