[birding] Beverage-in-hand method of birding

Hello folks,

In my earlier posting to the MidValley list-serv (also copied to OBOL),
I attributed the "beverage-in-hand" method of motorless birding to Randy
(Campbell) who had mentioned it in a posting earlier today.

To give credit where credit is due, I should note that Jeff Harding was
the originator of this phrase, if not the entire idea of
beverage-in-hand birding. I suspect that Randy's mention of this method
was a tip of the hat to a fellow Linn County birder.

Beverage-in-hand birding has unfortunately not yielded a Hutton's Vireo
for me today, so I'll settle for just three vireo species on the day.
Nothing ventured, nothing lost.

Cheers, & happy birding,
Joel
