Hi all, Due to a few inquiries I wanted to post an update on the December 1st Conservation Symposium that I mentioned yesterday. The "Cerulean Sponsor" level of support is filled up, as we only had room for a limited number of people for the Friday night portion of the event. But, there is certainly room for the remainder of the event - Deer Creek lodge is a very big place! We have a fabulous slate of speakers for Saturday, which is only 50 bucks and that includes breakfast and lunch. And Saturday night's affair features the legendary Scott Weidensaul, who shouldn't be missed! Also, if you are a student and are reading this and would like to come, please let me know. The OOS is very much interested in supporting younger birders and has a special student rate for this event. For all of the details visit the Ohio Ornithological Society's website; address in my signature line below. Thank you, and hope to see you soon! Jim Jim McCormac Columbus, Ohio Like nature?
