Hello:
I was at the Farmers Market Store in Meadowlands and I brought all 22 =
birders into the store so they get snacks and use the restrooms. A =
woman came over and handed the phone to me and said "this woman wants to =
talk to you Mike". I thought, oh no my email made the rounds in =
Meadowlands/Sax Zim and she is going to chew me out! Ha- ha.=20
So I said " Hello" and we chatted. The woman name Mrs. Abrahamson is the =
newsletter editor for the local newsletter that reaches all 400 people =
in the surrounding area of Sax Zim area. She is going to send me a slew =
of questions about birding in the Sax Zim area. She is going to feature =
this in the next newsletter. I told her I will answer all her questions =
and help her out for her piece in the newsletter. This will greatly =
inform and improve the birding community and the residents of Sax Zim. =
This newsletter is delivered to the houses in this area! I find it =
funny that after my last email on Sax Zim I will be the ambassador to =
represent us in the newsletter!
So of course I knew there should be others involve so I told Mrs =
Abrahamson I will bring in the MOU President, Mark Alt to field =
questions and comments and Randy Frederickson to give economic =
perspective on birding effects small communities such as Meadowlands. =
She is very excited about this. So I found the tool to clear the air =
with us birders and the residents.
The woman who handed me phone told me that the Farmers Market are =
pleased with all the support I gave them all winter when other places =
like Wilberts were getting all the attention. So they are now going to =
add a guestbook for birders this summer and will install bird feeders in =
the back of their building to attract the birds. I told her that =
birders will lstop in and donate $$ for the feed and keep the feeders =
going! So hopefully with my connections I made in Isabella and now in =
Meadowlands there will be two feeding stations next to indoor plumbings =
and places to eat and buy snacks. I am very happy with what has happen =
over the last few months this winter. I will also like to bring some =
MOU brochures and give them to the people in Meadowlands and Isabella as =
well. I would also like to see people donate feeders to these places as =
the more feeders they have the more birds we will see next winter!!
OH by the way stop in Farmers Market in Meadowland if you are in Sax Zim =
the ladies make fresh sandwiches for the birders for them to purchase. =
They are excellent sandwiches as you can tell by my bulging waistline.
Good news indeed!
