Sorry I was having network issues and did not see this discussion till this
morning. Please stick to the guidelines listed below:
mou-net is a place where birders can share their sightings -
notable or otherwise - with other interested people. We particularly
invite posts of observations that contribute to the understanding of the birds
in the state. This includes sightings of birds that are unusual,
in an unusual location or out of season, or present in significantly
higher numbers than normally expected.
Please limit your posts to the areas described above; mou-net is not
the place for advertising products or services (unless sponsored or
endorsed by the MOU or its affiliates), birding trip reports outside of
Minnesota, limited debates between just a few individuals, personal
musings and monologues, or surveys about personal experiences. Consider
that it's often more appropriate to respond to someone's posting with a
private e-mail rather than a public response on mou-net.
If these lists lose
focus, then they also lose their value. There are other mailing lists
available for people interested in other issues.
If anyone has any questions about this please message one of the moderators off
list please.
Back to birds! Lots of good stuff being found.
