Hi Nelson - In this mode of communication I believe it's important to stick with "I" rather than "you." Writing "you" comes across as critical and demeaning. Just doesnt feel good or respectful.

Just some advice from a friend.

Best birding,
Rob

Or, better yet, I will batch report my sighting at the end of the goshawk season. I will make it simple-; will not age or sex. Will only give a general location, and will not reference the time. My goshawk season is from Sept. 30 until June 1. Did you notice that I do not give a specific time of my sightings. There is a reason. Possibly you can figure it out. The best to all of you, I don't mean every part of you. Ha ha. Nelson Briefer- chuckles- Anacortes. _______________________________________________
