TWEETS,
A number of people including myself were out to try for the BOOBY this
afternoon without luck. I have burned up lots of fossil fuel on that bird
(took the 50 mpg car today though).
The SHARP-TAILED was seen today by people whom I will not mention as
they probably called in sick to their jobs.
As I understand Ruth's communication. She learned from Peter Badame on
the Protection Island Boat Trip that the BOOBY had been resighted and this
led she and Patrick to try for it. This, I suspect, means that the caretaker
saw it. Ruth can clear that point up. Anyway, Peter, if you could relay any
news scoops on that or other good birds there are a lot of us that would
appreciate it.
