I get TN-Bird in digest format, so if someone has already posted this today, please excuse. Judy Dorsey West TN ---------- From: TSuchma@xxxxxxx Date: Tue, 05 Aug 2003 14:35:27 -0400 (EDT) Subject: What you can do about Shreveport PM Roost Dear Purple Martin Landlord, The PM Roost in Shreveport has been terribly harassed in the last week. There are 100,000 birds at this roost and the tactics used to move the roost has resulted in many birds that have died or have been injured. Many of these birds are from northern states above Shreveport. Many are juveniles just recently hatched and fledged this season. Please lend your support to an important cause to save Purple Martins and this roost.
