Clergymen and Birds Shore Up Life's Harmony
A Wisconsin pastor and amateur ornithologist writes on balancing church duties with birding. He recalls conventions, field trips, and late-night drives, noting how birds inspire sermons and how guidance seen in avian migration echoes human aims. He cites species like Bewick's wrens and avocets, and invites reader correspondence.

Wisconsin eyes changes to endangered species list
Wisconsin officials propose updates to the threatened and endangered species lists. The plan adds red-necked grebe to endangered status and lists loggerhead shrike, slender glass lizard, goldeye, Blanchard's cricket frog, and pallid shiner as endangered. It would shift the double crested cormorant to threatened, while dropping six species from the threatened list. Public hearings were authorized by the Natural Resources Board.
