WV-BIRD!!! This list is hosted by the National Audubon Society
and serves as a forum for birders to discuss birdlife in West Virginia.
The list is open to all people of all skill levels from beginning backyard birders to professional ornithologists.
WV-BIRDS is a birding communications network covering the entire state of West Virginia where you can:
* report and receive rare bird sighting information;
* report your bird sightings in WV;
* share timely information about bird outings and chapter field trips;
* interact with members of the National Audubon Society, Partners in
Flight, and other bird-related organizations.
As a member of WV-BIRDS, you can send a message to all subscribers by
sending your message to, <WV-bird...>
The result is a fast and simple way to reach the birding community across
the state with one e-mail message. A message sent to the above address
goes out to ALL subscribers, so be careful what you send. Responses or
"replies" to a message sent out on the network also goes back to all
subscribers, not just the writer of the posted message.
