Re: Recent Ruff Sighting - An apology

[Chris Sanderson <>]

Hi Mark,

I'd like to echo the other comments here that you did nothing wrong.  I
occasionally won't report nesting records of threatened species due to
concern over disturbance, but for vagrants and rarities the additional
information gained by people observing and reporting these species is quite
valuable.  I think it would be good for people to stop and think about
potential issues before reporting things, but please don't let the poor
behavior of a very small section of the birding community dissuade you from
letting people know about great birds like Ruff.

Regards,
Chris
