Dear Jason,

I am working myself from the newest to the oldest emails and I see you had
another martin observation along East Bay too. Would you also grant
permission for this one on 4/14?

We would need a zipcode for East Bay. Is there a town nearby we can use or
does East Bay area have one.

I am in contact with Kevin Li and he supplies us with a lot of martin reports
in your area also. Do you know Kevin?
