Often these Alerts originate as telephone hotlines. Original texts or transcripts are contributed by volunteers and posted to the listserver, which re-distributes them to all subscribers. Because the Bird Alert mailing lists are limited in purpose, new subscribers may not post messages to them. Most subscribers will never need or want to post. However, if you want to contribute a text or transcript, send mail to the list owners and you will be given posting authorization.
New contributors are always welcome.
For detailed instructions consult the Contributors' Guidelines. The lists are organized geographically. B.
