If you have simply put it off too long or forgot, the deadline is here to register for the 2012 TOS/VSO Joint Meeting which is being held next weekend (May 18-20) at Johnson City, TN. You need to get your check in the mail as soon as possible. The Tennessee Ornithological Society and Virginia Society of Ornithology will gather at the Holiday Inn Hotel and Convention Center. This is a tremendous opportunity for all birders. You will have an opportunity to bird with some of the best birders anywhere around these parts right here in our high elevations of the Southern Blue Ridge Mountains. Details about the event can be found at: http://www.tnbirds.org/Events/Springmtg12.html We have a really great crowd coming ! Wallace Coffey Bristol, TN
