Greetings,
The seventh annual meeting of Western Field Ornithologists in San Diego, 9–12 September 1982, was very informative, enjoyable and productive. Credit and thanks to Elizabeth Copper and Sarah Brooks and all those on the local committee, to Dr. Richard Phillips and the Environmental Studies Program at USD, and to San Diego Field Ornithologists. Many other people, from masters of ceremonies, to field trip leaders and post-banquet speaker Ken Fink who dazzled us with outstanding slides of Alaskan wildlife, made the meeting a real success. About 140 persons from over the U.S. and Canada attended.
