I rarely add my comments to listserv conversations, but this time I will make an exception. Who among us does not love reading about the birds arriving during migration. I do not read every post but I do like to know what birds are headed in my direction (I live in NE Ohio) and they don't have to be rare. I get excited when I see all the hummingbird posts since I know my feeder will have a visitor very soon too. And when the warblers start, OMG I can't wait to get out and go birding. One of the best things about this listserv is the sharing of our mutual love of birds, especially with folks new to birding or new to Ohio or who are visiting for the first time. Let's make sure they feel welcome!!!!
