Clark Blake's recent post re monitoring the northward migration via
Tweeters reminded me that WOSNews in the early 90s twice published a
comprehensive Dennis-list of migratory birds so as to encourage
readers to note arrival dates. The response, as I recall, was not
great. Here's the list once again, and rather than sending results
to Dennis (unless "you" want them), publish them on Tweeters for the
record, for all to enjoy, and to inspire others to get out and look:
