[nysbirds-l] Owl locations
Hi Everyone! A reminder, the rules of the listserv (as far as I can remember) state not to post ultra specific locations of owls. I believe general area is acceptable. I saw a man today drive up to the topside to one of the south facing dunes (literally off the road and up to the top of the dune) right before the west side of Shinnecock Inlet. I have no idea what he was up to (and it wasn’t a gov’t car either). But that incident is a perfect example as to why we don’t post specific locations of owls. I received a few choice opinions of my vague posting earlier today and this is my general response to those replies and a general reminder to all. And remember, if you don’t have something nice to say, zip it! Happy owling! Elizabeth A. DiNapoli B.A., M.Ed.

[nysbirds-l] Owl locations-- thanks!
Fellow Birders; Thanks for the overwhelming (and rapid!) response to my query re: owl roosting locations. This reminds me of how much I loved being a part of this community for many years-- its members have always been generous to a fault, and I've tried to approach my life and birding business in Panama with NYS as a model. By sharing knowledge we help each other grow, and indeed learn a bit ourselves each time we teach! I have more than enough information, and one field trip lined up-- thank you all for the various offers, I will send a private thank you when I come up for air Thank you to Jesse for the glowing words (although he exaggerates the number of recordings I've shared!)-- it always warms my heart when I meet a birder on a trail in Panama, introduce myself, and they say, "I know you-- I have 50 of your recordings on my I-Pod!". Jesse, I'm glad my recordings were of some use-- were those your bands I saw on the ST Wrens at Nusagandi? I'm actually co-authoring a CD of Panama bird sounds-- but I'll keep giving away all the data as well! By the way, I have guided a few New Yorkers in Panama, and encountered others in the field-- I'm not officially guiding due to potential medical issues, but I am joining field trips on a friendly basis, and giving away free trip advice (as I always have). One of the respondants to the owling query in fact had some Panama-related questions, that! 's my next note-- I help anybody who asks, but New Yorkers get special attention! Thanks again to all for the owling advice, I will post regarding results in a few days.
