urned on a lot of non birders to birds and their welfare. To quote one
friend "it won't turn me into an anorak but it was really nice; I begin to
see your fascination".
And surely if this series can make non-birders out there in the "great
unwashedness" aware of birds, albeit for a brief time, it enhances our
pastime and may do some good for the overall welfare of birds at some future
date.
Too easy to be negative.
May 1999 bring you a part of all the birds you would like to see - all of
them would leave you with no further goals!
