We've Got Mail
Partners Help Conservation in Malaysia
June 8:
I work at Paya Indah Wetland Sanctuary in Malaysia, and my job involves
managing habitat for waterfowl, especially purple swamphens and purple herons.
I came across the Waterfowl 2000 (now Birdscapes) newsletter from your homepage
and would like to be added to your mailing list.
June 21:
To my delight, I received your wonderful package this morning. It must
have arrived at our head office some days ago, but since I work at the
field station, it took an extra couple of days for someone to bring it
here. Thank you once again for the impressively quick response and willingness
to share such interesting information with the international like-minded
community. We are at a rather early stage of developing a proper management
plan for our wetland sanctuary and at this point we could do with all
the help we can get.

Editors: It always gives your editors
pleasure to see that the work being done by partnerships across North
America is of interest to people everywhere who are also concerned about
habitat conservation. By the way, "Paya Indah" translates as "Beautiful
Swamp." (If you are wondering why a June e-mail message is in the Winter
Issue, the letter came in too late to be included in the Fall Issue. The
magazine has a long lead time.)
