Bob,
I want you to know that I both appreciate and look forward to your posts about the birds at the Conneaut Sandspit.  I have only been able to be there one time but get immense enjoyment from reading your reports, particularly hearing about the changing birds from week to week throughout the shorebird migrating season.  Please do not stop posting on this list serve.
