[Kim Richard Eckert]

Following is the status of the trips on the 2008-09 Minnesota Birding
Weekends (MBW) schedule as of today, February 12. Note that some MBWs are
already filled with waiting lists and others are close to being filled.

You'll find additional information about each MBW (including the
registration procedure and a form) on the MOU website (
http://moumn.org/trips.html), on Bob Ekblad's website (
http://www.birding-minnesota.com/MN-MBW.htm), and in the current issue of
the MOU's newsletter, *Minnesota Birding*.

Also a reminder that Minnesota Birding Weekends are now part of the MOU
field trips schedule, and the MOU has other field trips coordinated by Field
Trips Chairman Bob Williams (bxwilliams at cbburnet.com). The schedule of these
trips appears along with MBWs on the MOU website(http://moumn.org/trips.html
).

Please be sure to contact me if you have any questions.
