[CT Birds] A Plea from the Daily Report Compiler

[Scott Kruitbosch]

An excellent request, Roy, which I hope everyone treats as necessary for
observations. I am sure all of us are grateful for the time you put into
this list.

Personally, I go to my sent messages folder and open an old post to the
list. I then copy the "standard format" and paste it into my new email,
changing the necessary information.

I know a line like this...

>From Scott Kruitbosch:
3/12 - Stratford yard  -- 1 FOX SPARROW, at least 3 BROWN CREEPERS

...does not take too much time for us to type on our own, but it takes an
enormous amount of time for Roy. He has to do it for all the reports which
lack it, as well as figuring out the vital information for himself. So
please, at least for his sake, add that to any observations.

The COA website has a page of guidelines for just this very thing, along
with what is considered a "common bird" for CT:
