I'd love to see something set up for Minnesota like they have over in
the UK. They have a great system over there where people get bird
alerts on their pagers or cell phones. It'd be great to be out birding,
especially during the busy weekends, such as Hawk Ridge weekend in Sept,
when historically there are a lot of birders in Duluth, and be able to
receive the latest current updates on what is seen and where, or if
someone spots something new, immediatly everyone can be notified.
Something as simple as "Pacific Loon - Park Point - Airport" or
"Black-backed Woodpecker - Hawk Ridge" would be sufficient. It's always
disappointing to be out birding, especially when you've travelled a
distance from home, and find out when you return something cool was
found that you didn't hear about or weren't in the right place at the
right time and thus missed.
If this is already set up for Mou-Net please post publically on how it
is done as i'd like to set my phone up for these alerts. The brits
really have it figured out..hopefully we can catch up :)

I have a new phone that has email, internet and a bunch of other neat
stuff. I know some birders get postings on their cell phones and Paul
Budde has instructions in doing that. I don't have Paul's email and
maybe some of you all know the process and if you do could you send me
those instructions.
Oh ya there's a Clark's Nutcracker in Silver Bay! I had to sit with my
son at the dentist offices instead. I'll be heading up there mighty
early in the am hours to beat the expected crowds that are heading up
there on Fri.
