Hello Ohio Birders,

As one who has actually moved and downsized, I found a customer for my back
issues of Birding and The Ohio Cardinal.  Any materials that are available
online (e.g. North American Birds) I tossed into recycling.  My books are
mostly regional field guides that I'm hanging onto with the fantasy that
I'll get back to some of these places but if my body wears out before my
brain I'll be giving them to some worthy organization or individual.
(Mass. Audubon, or a grandchild if one of them shows more than a passing
interest.)
