Hi birders
Only recently have I had time to read the March issue of Australian Field
Ornithology. In its editorial Stephen Debus laments the declining submission
of papers. He blames it on twitching: "I think a large part of the problem
lies with the recent development of the 'twitching' malaise, and its
obsession with 'ticks' and rarities, to the detriment of meaningful bird
study."
Quite inappropriate statements in my view, or if anything, unnecessary.
Cheers
