OBOL & Tweeters:

Spent the day off going through my library to cull duplicates rather than
actually out birdwatching!! Though I never made it outside once that day,
I did hear a song sparrow sing at 7:00 a.m. and a Bewick's wren calling
later in the morning.

Discovered that I have two copies each of the following, so am offering
them for sale:
