Thanks for the reply. I have no plans to include this in Washington
Birder but it sounds like a good thing to include in WOSNews.
I plan to participate too. It might be useful to make an announcement
on Tweeters and ask that reports sent to NTT be CC'd to you or Tweeters so
we all can see the data. ^^^^^^^^^^^

By the time our December issue comes out the NTT should have compiled
their info and I (or a WOSNews volunteer tallier) should have a
Washington list prepared.

Comments, everyone? I'll need to know by the weekend if this is a hot
idea or a lot of wasted work for ye olde editor.
