It looks like they're finally arriving in Suffolk County.  I got mine in
West Babylon today.

RE:[nysbirds-l] Kingbird Mailing Problem

2020-09-22 Thread Shaibal Mitra
I'm writing with an update regarding the Kingbird mailing problems. 

In following up with people waiting for long overdue hard copies, we learned 
that some (but not all) involved people who had unknowingly renewed their 
memberships under "digital only."

But we know that in other cases hard copies are really out there somewhere. 
Yesterday (21 September) we finally received our own missing hard copy of The 
Kingbird via USPS!

Many of the participants in this forum are also members of the New York State 
Ornithological Association and are familiar with its quarterly journal, The 
Kingbird. Even those who are not members might be interested to know more about 
the organization and its publications, which members currently may choose to 
receive digitally or in print (but not both, for logistical reasons):

https://nybirds.org/

Kingbird Volume 70 Number 2 was published digitally on 12 August and mailed on 
13 August, but it has come to our attention that many members expecting hard 
copies still haven't received them. The problem appears to be with the USPS, 
because people who have not received copies are set up on our mailing list 
exactly like those who have received them. We apologize for the inconvenience 
and would like (a) to learn the full scope of the problem; and (b) provide 
digital access to as many affected members as possible.

If you have been expecting a hard copy of Kingbird 70-2 and have not received 
it please email me and copy Patricia Lindsay at gelochelidon AT gmail.com.

Sincerely,
Shaibal S. Mitra
Editor, The Kingbird
