[Gordon Barrett <[[email protected]]>]

Please excuse the cross posting.  As active birders, I thought you 
might be willing to respond to this request from the Cornell Lab of 
Ornithology.

>Just one more week until the 20th season of FeederWatch begins on November 11!
>
>The number of FeederWatch participants is currently lower than last 
>year, and we are asking for your help to recruit new friends to the 
>FeederWatch family. The Cornell Lab of Ornithology has issued four 
>press releases highlighting recent findings and calling for new and 
>continuing participants to join in as we embark on our 20th season. 
>To read the press releases, visit 
>http://www.birds.cornell.edu/pfw/MediaCorner.htm .
>
>We hope you'll forward the regionally appropriate press releases to 
>your local newspapers and radio stations. Local coverage often 
>results in new participants who will help ensure that information 
>from your area is well represented in our database. We also hope 
>you'll spread word to your list serves, birding clubs, family, and 
>friends who might enjoy sharing their counts with us this year. A 
>paragraph of information about how to sign-up is included below. 
>Thank you for your help!

>Project FeederWatch needs your help to keep track of the birds at

>monitor changes in feeder bird populations. New participants receive 
>a research kit with easy to follow instructions, the FeederWacther's 
>handbook, a bird-identification poster, a calendar, and a 
>subscription to the newsletter of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology 
>(U.S.) or Bird Studies Canada (Canada). For more information or to 
>sign up in the U.S., please visit http://www.birds.cornell.edu/pfw/ 
>or call (800) 843-2473; if in Canada, please visit
