Even thought I have been busily engaged these past few weeks in publishing suggestions for Christmas gifts, I have most certainly not been forgetting (at least in my heart) the Born Again Bird Watcher readers of faiths other than Christianity. Therefore as this is the beginning of Hannukah, I hope all my readers of the Jewish faith will accept my most sincere good wishes during the Festival of Light.

Mazel tov (apologies if this is not the right thing to say) and good bird watching.
