Tuma brings up a question which I have also asked myself.  I am on several
listserves and, on all of them, people write in whatever they want.  If the
members are careful with their subject headings, one can tell at a glance
which messages to read.  On another listserv, I am "the expert", so I erase
90% without reading, particularly when I see that I cannot be of help.  The
other 10% are invaluable to me.  On this one, I am the rank amateur, and I
assume the professionals may not read my observations.  I am very grateful,
however, when those of you with so much more expertise do take the time to
help me!  Some members love all photos.  Some don't bother with sightings
far from their own purviews.  Some read only birds, or only leps and odes,
etc.  For some, no doubt, "It's all good", as the youngsters say.
Listserves are wonderful!  But please (as most of you do), include the place
and subject in the title.
Jane

  Hi Folks:


  Sometimes, I'm not sure as to what to report or to tell folks what we see
or photograph.  Is it the NS Reportable species or just whatever we see.  I
imagine that for the Rare Bird Alert, it is the reportable species but what
about for this listserv?
