Hey Tweets - As a follow on to Tyler's post, I would like to remind you all that the Patrick Sullivan Young Birders Fund ("PSYBF") of the Washington Ornithological Society ("WOS") also has scholarships available for young birders to pursue their avian interests in a variety of ways. Check out the PSYBF page on the WOS website: www.wos.org<http://www.wos.org>. We welcome all grant applications. Our first grant recipient, Leah Rensel of Arlington, who received her grant last June, leaves next month for Central America to pursue her studies.
