Visiting the Green-breasted Mango



Dear All,

I know how enthusiastic many folks are about going to see this hummer-- but
PLEASE contact Lori Turner directly BEFORE planning a visit.  You
*absolutely* cannot see the feeder unless you are well inside her backyard
(no vantage from neighboring yards or the far end of her lot).  She does
work so she may be hard to reach but do not give up.  And since Lori gets
up early to go to work, she has asked that folks not call after 8 PM.
Everybody's ability to view her hummer may be comprimised if all birders do
not 'play by the rules' here!!  Also, just as importantly, be extremely
careful not to harass the bird while there.  The wintry weather is
certainly causing it some degree of stress so folks should be very
attentive to their actions and be as considerate as possible.

Also, there should be an update later today by a couple of local birders
who will be over to look for the mango around noontime.

Thanks,

Susan M. Campbell
