Hello fellow Tweeters,

Greetings from Panam?. I',m sorry this post is a little late for this
topic. Since I'm not in the area to chase one of the fine birds people
like Connie find, I don't read Tweeters everyday. The only reason I
don't turn Tweeters off when I'm away for months is to read about
peoples lives up North. Connie helps me feel connected to the NW
birding network. She mentioned that her post was off topic and to just
hit delete if you didn't want to bother with it. I personally scroll
down through the Subjects, find the number for Connie's and The
Sullivan's posts - then go read them first. I've been on other very
boring websites that list birds only. Why bother! Let's keep some
personality to this website.

When I'm up North (in Anacortes) I read Tweeters to find rare birds or
common ones that I want to see. It's sad that someone would be offended
for a post like Connie put on the Tweeters website.

That's my two-cents worth.

Happy birding,
Ann Van Denburgh

P.S. -- the most common bird I saw this morning was a Clay-colored Robin
