Andrew, just read your Final Report, finally. I thought, at the time, that you had as much of the poet as the scientist in you. Your report is beautiful. Yes, do write, a book, anything!

Bravo... truely stunning project. When does your book come out? I'd buy it. Hope all is well.

Drew,
It has been so exciting to follow your travels and yet so difficult to read as you certainly make my shoes restless on my feet. You should strongly consider writing a book fiction or non your eloquent speech finds ways of inspiring the imagination. I wish you the best of luck... "Not all who wander are lost..."

Howdy! Just wanted to wish you well on this last stretch of your travels! I'm sure you've got lots and lots of mixed feelings about finishing with this whole project, but just know that we're all VERY excited to have you back in the country. I'm especially excited for you to visit CA in August- you MUST come to San Francisco. Just so you know, if you had ever stayed in one spot for very long, I totally would have sent you some mail. As soon as you have an address (no hurry), I'll be sending you crap (you know, holiday wishes and stuff). Look out. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Greetings from the land of Blackburnian, Yellow-rumped, Bay-breasted, Black and White, Prothonotary Warblers--to name just a few from this morning's last Stanton birdwalk of Short Term. What a viewing! I hope you are seeing at least as many exciting birds, as well as sand and boats...
Well, you have almost come full circle, Drew. Will your travels bring you back to Bates to tell us about the adventures you haven't written about? By any chance, you aren't planning to be in Newfoundland between June 24-30, are you? I am...
Liv
I say hello from the infamous Sable Island where we are all bracing for the arrival of your poorly tempered bird. Apparently they show up the same time every year -May 16th- so I work care-free until then. I am doing some birding of my own believe it or not?it must be contagious! Can I expect a visit?
Peter O'toole
Have you literally seen a tern in six months? just wondering...

This bird-watching thing is contagious. I can't keep my eyes off Mr. Turkey on our side patio who can't decide between eating our seed or displaying his 'wares'. How fast his feathers go up and down is very metaphorical. Everything in mid-life seems metaphorical! I had a great breakfast with your Mom on Tuesday. I'm in the middle (end) of a 2-week break. Both and Emily and David were, for a time, simultaneously in the state of Arizona. Emily is doing bird counts and David is just looking at his one bird named Virginia. Just wanted to say Hi and say that we are enjoying your travels vicariously.
Christine Woll
Im sure the birds in venezuela are great and all, but you have no idea what kind of rock pigeons you are missing here in lewiston. well ok the occasional flock of cedar waxwings on my morning stroll to campus is slightly exciting. we miss you and hope you will come see us in early june!
Judy
The first report of a Piping Plover came in today...can Drew be far behind?
Dennis
best wishes for the remainder of your trip.....will be anxious to hear what transpires for the remainder of the trrip.
