Members of this list have developed conventions of giving atlas
coordinates for sites, sharing descriptions via the birding site guide
http://www.ohiobirds.org/birdingsites/about.php  , and--if we don't
forget--offering directions to certain spots in posts.
        When these measures fail, places with established names, such as parks,
are almost always available via a simple Web search. Beyond that,
remember there is an expert source: the person who posted the message.
This birder wanted to share information. Posters seem always glad to
clarify, and their addresses are right there. Another benefit of direct
inquiries is feedback: if I omit directions, questions will remind me to
include them next time.
