sandee@sun16.scri.fsu.edu (Daan Sandee) (12/11/90)

Latest updated list of RBA phone hotlines.                  December 1990.
New information is marked with asterisks.
Two new states have joined - Georgia and Oklahoma. We still need volunteers
from Hawaii, Kentucky, amd North and South Dakota.
Please supply corrections - or extract, correct, and re-post.
The data for this list originates from the ABA. Please notify them
of corrections at 1-800-634-1776.

These hotlines are usually updated weekly. In most cases it is possible to
leave a message at the end of the recording. Sometimes there is a separate
number for leaving messages, which is listed below.

For information about the North American Rare Bird Alert (NARBA) service,
which is by subscription only, call the Houston Audubon Society at
713-932-1639.

Hotlines marked + are transcribed by volunteers onto computers and are
available on the BIRD*** mailing lists on BITNET. To subscribe to one or more
of these mailing lists, send an Internet mail message to
