Well, Seattle Audubon does pay the bills for the hotline, so I guess it's
not crass commercialism to use the net to solicit contributions to SAS's
annual Birdathon drive. We plan the usual all-nighter owl prowl
cross-Cascades marathon, leaving Seattle just before sundown. If you
have owls staked out somewhere along the I-90 corridor between Seattle
and Dodson Rd., please let me know so we might try for them.

Good birding.
