Hi, Tweets




I promised my son I would not get involved in this discussion and I respect Hal's wishes . . . so, this is not about bird names, but definitely about some people's bias/predjudice in going on and on about the subject of names etc., i.e.. putting blame on "older, white men."




My son is older than Carmelo amd others, but he does not put down women ever. As an "older white woman" why am I and others left out of the continuting diatribes.




Just because a lot of bird names don't start with women's names doesn't mean women haven't been involved - aand contributed - through the years.




Enuf said. Just curious.




Cheers, Diann
