Maybe we should put women in charge of the AOU checklist - think of
all the splitting that might occur! Dusky vs. Hammond's? Ahhh,
Not-So-Dusky vs. Dusky vs. Murky vs. vs. vs.!

We'd all be members of the 700 club (the species one, not the TV one)
in just a few months - those of us smart enough to go birding with
women who of course would be the only birders able to differentiate
them, that is!
