Re: PAW Comment

I have found it quite informative and entertaining. I think it adds a 
nice balance to the equipment and technical discussions that have 
dominated the list. I enjoy almost every area of discussion that the 
list touches on. For me, the PAW makes PDML a richer resource. Well 
enough of that, time to head out to the woods and look for some birds.

Hi gang,

Well, now that the initial brouhaha has subsided, it looks
like the Paw has found a place for itself on the PDML.
I, for one, am really pleased to see such a variety of
photographs and skill levels, from newbies that need some
help to experienced photogs that are putting up some great
pics, and the wide variety of gear that is being used.
Apart from the photos and gear, we are getting to know our
fellow list members a little better through their pictures.
Family snaps, pics of their neighborhoods, work, friends,
pets, refrigerators, surgeries, etc., all provide a broader
understanding of who is on the list.  And it's so nice that
some quiet people, those who have not posted messages at
all, or only rarely, are also jumping in.
Speaking only for myself, this has been a very nice
experience, and has fostered an even stronger sense of
community here on the list.  I hope others have gotten as
much from the PAW as I have.
