Hello birders in CT and nearby:
On this Thanksgiving weekend it is appropriate that we recognize and give
thanks to Chuck Imbergamo, our CT Birds Moderator, since September 2021
(you can click on the link below to see an image of that 2021
announcement).
Thank you Chuck (and thanks to Roy Harvey before you) for your deeply
appreciated work for Connecticut birders and birding. You and your online
CT Birds service are an essential part of the evolving network of
near-real-time bird information for our state and nearby.
Thank you so much Chuck!! You are really appreciated.
