TN-Birders:
Everyone needs to be reminded that reports on the TN-Birds Net requires 
specific information about the locality of the sighting.

TN-Bird requirs that you give a full name of the LOCATION and COUNTY for EVERY 
bird reported.  This is a must.  Several recent messages have not done that.

Most of the problems with reporting location are because a birder has a sense 
of reporting to friends and others who know them and not to subscribers all 
over the state, the south and much of the nation.   All of us see bird reports 
from places we have no way locating.

Some subscibers head up their report with something like:

                                August 15, 2003
                                Ensley Bottoms
                                Shelby Co. TN

Others us a subjection line: [TN-Bird] Kyker Bottoms, Blount Co, east Tenn

Some simply type it into the body of their message.

Whatever you do, be specific.   Even if you are reporting about yard birds at 
your home please list the town, city and county.

Let's go birding.....
