Hello Birders,

For those of you who would like use e-mail to contribute to and stay up to
date with the latest sitings in the Vancouver area, this note is for you.

Following the success of the E-group, BCINTBIRD in the Okanagan area, I
have started a Vancouver area E-group called BCVANBIRDS.

The Okanagan group receives about 10 reports a day and is frequented by
dozens of very active birders.

So far, the Vancouver group consists of only a few members, which is why
I'm asking those interested to join. The benefits are that you would be
aware of up to the minute sightings. Also, perhaps more people could
verify sightings and provide more accurate and thorough information for
the Rare Bird Alert. Of course, there is also the benefit of staying in
touch with the rest of the birding community.

Here's how to join:
