The "detractors" think that Mr. Avery acts like he thinks
he is David Sibley or Kenn Kaufman.
Just because one has birded in more than one state doesn't
make them an "expert", in my eyes. If that's the case, then I'm better
than the late Roger Tory Peterson (and I'm not).
I guess this teacher has never had his students say his
"quiz" wasn't fair.

Subject: [BirdTalk] R: Week 8 Bird
Quiz
Tim...(and to
others),
As I observe Utah
listserv (BirdTalk), your contributions consistantly greatly enhance its
overall value. The pictures that you added to the UtahBirds were
great. And your weekly quiz is an important exercise in observation for
any birder. Even though in my busyness I sometimes don't get to
answering, I appreciate your efforts. As a teacher, a quiz always
needs to be a challenge to the student (or at least some of them). Don't
let any detractor sidetrack you from doing what you are doing!
BTW, if you agree
with me, "honk!" ; )
