If you have read any recent issues of _The Condor_ you know that the papers deal with current ornithological research, which can be quite dry. However, in its first 20 or 30 years, this journal was nearly the only source of information on birds in the western United States and activities centered on the San Francisco Bay Region (The Cooper Ornithological Society was formed in San Jose in 1893 by four local birders). The Society now sponsors all issues of _The Condor_ on line, check out . Dr. Blair Wolf of the University of New Mexico is the leading instigator of this project and is commended. For those of you with some gray in your hair, you may remember Blair as one of the lead banders at the Coyote Creek Riparian Station. He was then a student at San Jose State and did his Master's Thesis on Black Phoebes under Dick Mewaldt. He then went on to Arizona State (I think) and got his PhD. He is the author or co-author of the Birds of North America Black and Say's Phoebe accounts. Bill _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
