? I am an author. I enjoy clear, precise language. Sometimes, I misspell words.
Let me state this clearly. If any member has an outdoor adventure and is generous enough to spend time describing and sharing it with the community served by Tweeters,?I will always be grateful for their reports, even if that person is tired from the trip, less than perfectionistic about the use of language, doesn?t use spell-check, has learned English as a second language or is simply in a hurry to get back out into the field.
I believe they are demonstrating kindness and generosity in sharing information that they could easily keep private. Many have benefitted.?
If you see a California Condor at the Montlake Fill or any other bird you are excited about, please use any combination of incomplete sentences, incorrect punctuation or misspellings to alert the group. I always have and will continue to appreciate your reports. I am happy to have found this community.
With respect,
