BIRDING
The devil damn thee black, thou cream-faced loon
Where gott'st thou that goose look?
(Wm Shakespeare, Macbeth))

The NUTTY HATCH - "'The Nutty Birdwatcher' site is a valuable resource on birding, giving very informative information for the casual backyard birder as well as the more serious birder. The site contains descriptive information such as feeding habits, identifications, habitats, predators and migration timetables on many North American birds that are found in the Eastern United States. The site gives new birders a head start on identifiying birds and how to create a backyard environment to encourage birds to gather and feed around your home." (The Nutty Birdwatcher)

The RAPTOR CENTER at the University of Minnesota - International medical facility for birds of prey. Its mission is to preserve biological diversity among raptors and other avian species through medical treatment, scientific investigation, education, and management of wild populations. Read about raptor adventures, facts, legislation, sight and sound files and more. Register for "Highway to the Tropics: Tracking Raptor via Satellite on the Internet."

We may say of angling as Dr. Boteler said of strawberries: "Doubtless God could have made a better berry, but doubtless God never did"; and so, if I might be the judge, God never did make a more calm, quiet, innocent recreation than angling.

(Izaak Walton)
