No one else gotten the gull right so far, so I may have just excluded the only reader capable of winning the contest.<BR/><BR/>On a related note, one reason why I was so excited to visit Japan is because I have never birded Asia before, and most of the American birders I know have little or no field experience in Asia. I guess that makes sense when you consider how far away Asia is, and how relatively easy it is for American birders to head down to Central and South America, but I think we're missing the boat on a lot of great places. <BR/><BR/>Most of the British birders I know seem to have done Thailand pretty early in their birding "careers," and have moved on to progessively more challenging places in Asia, just like a lot of U.S. birders do in Latin America. <BR/><BR/>A while back, Ben King spoke at one of the local bird club meetings in Chicago. He gave a great presentation, but I'm not sure he got more than one or two new customers out of the deal.Birding is NOT a crime!!!!https://www.blogger.com/profile/01649531002323526543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14558933.post-1133138640082532692005-11-27T18:44:00.000-06:002005-11-27T18:44:00.000-06:00Not allowed to enter?
