Lang,

I live in the Netherlands, I could send your link and maybe a
personal message from you to our national birding association.
I think that won't be too much work, right?

You can email me privately if you like to, or just send
the 'personal message' to the list. Perhaps one person per country
can send the link and message to their national birding association?

Regards, Evert
