To all tweeters --

The good news is I've finished grad school. The bad, I'm losing my
access to e-mail, at least for the time being. Before I sign off
tweeters, I just wanted to thank everyone -- this may be just a forum for
discussing the finer points of northwest (and Canadian soutwest?) birding to
some, but to me it's been a classroom as well. I was a silent
participant long before I got up the courage to aske my own questions,
and when I did, they were always thoroughly answered. I'm sure I'm not
the only one whose knowledge and understanding of birds has been greatly
increased by regular contact with others. I'll miss tweeters, bad puns
and all, and hope that I'll have the opportunity to rejoin the
discussions soon. So, THANKS!
