Re: New Field Guide



Mike - Congratulations on your new book!
Secondly, don't blame the ABA. When Audubon planned to deep-six the seasonal 
issues of American Birds, ABA took over those four, at a loss I might add, to 
keep alive that very important tool. AUDUBON insisted on keeping the CBC 
issue for, I assume, public relations value, they get a lot of mileage out of 
the CBC. AUDUBON still wantS ITS cake and eat it too. By issuing a gutted out 
CBC issue, and keeping the income generated by our five dollars, they can 
still get newspaper coverage on the counts as an "Audubon" venture, at 
minimal cost. This whole attitudde by Audubon, which dates back many years 
(15+ anyway), is why I left them some 8 years ago.
