The telephone portion of the northern Idaho / eastern Washington /
northeastern Oregon RBA is going out of business. Nearly 100% of the
sightings reported to the RBA are coming in over the Internet, and only a
few hearty souls occassionally call the number, making the monthly expense
hard to justify. Since you're reading this, you probably already know that
the latest rare bird information for northern Idaho, eastern Washington, and
northeastern Oregon, is found on the Inland Northwest Birders list serve.
Visit http://www.palouseaudubon.org for subscription directions; click on
rare bird alert, then click on list serve.

I'll continue to provide weekly (more or less) summaries of the rare bird
sightings for posting on Inland NW Birders, IBLE, Tweeters, and BirdsWest.
The summaries are also posted on the Palouse Audubon web site.

Good birding.
