HI All:
I thought you all might be interested in this quote:" Ornithology used
to
be an arcane hobby for embittened schoolmasters, dotty spinsters, and
lonely little boys, but now it is as normal a weekend occupation as
rug-making and wife-swapping."
it is by Kyril Bonfiglioli from "Don't point that thing at me".

Sincerely
