RE:[nysbirds-l] A blast from the past

2020-06-06 Thread Willie D'Anna
Ned is an excellent writer and that was a joyful read. It was nice to see
the names of Long Island birding luminaires in "print", all but Tom Davis I
have had the pleasure of birding with. One name that should have been in
that list, one I think that Shai would have mentioned but for obvious
reasons did not, is Pat Lindsay. So, I gladly do so and I thank Pat, Shai,
Tom, and the others for all the great birds you have found. Even though I
did not see most of them, it was great fun to hear about them!

Good birding!

Thanks for sharing, Hugh--very cool!

Andy had spoken with me about that day, but I wasn't aware of Ned's blog
post. Lots to think about there.

Best,
Shai

In case you missed this Ned Brinkley blog post, which is about the joy of
migration, it features NY birders, especially one in particular whom many of
you may have lost track of.

Thanks for sharing Hugh! Very neat and I could relate to the adrenaline rush as 
I read Ned’s mad dash - if you want to call it that, to the scene of the 
fallout.

I did not get to bird with the Andrew that long but he was one who inspired a 
personal quest to raise my game with Shorebirds.

It is one regret not being able to bird more with the likes of him. A 
gregarious, care free spirit with the occasional raritis fever ;)

Baldelli was a loss for us and a win for VA! Go Andy!!
