I would like to bring to everyone's attention the situation in Barbados, in
which an estimated 45,000 migratory shorebirds are slaughtered for fun every
year. Here is a link to an article on this atrocity. I don't know if this has
any effect on shorebirds that pass through our area, but I think all of us
should be outraged about this and endeavor to do something about it.

You can also Google Barbados and shorebird killing to find other  information
on this.

I apologize to the list if this type of post is considered off-topic.
