Any birdy walks or events going on?  Also - any news on the Long
Billed Dowitcher?

It should be noted that between 1950 and 1984, as the Green
Revolution transformed agriculture around the globe, world grain
production increased by 250%. The energy for the Green Revolution was
provided by fossil fuels in the form of fertilizers (natural gas),
pesticides (oil), and hydrocarbon fueled irrigation.
The world population has grown by about four billion since the
beginning of the Green Revolution and most believe that, without the
Revolution, there would be greater famine and malnutrition than the
UN presently documents (approximately 850 million people suffering
from chronic malnutrition in 2005).[36]
