Cape May Birds and Beers!

geesen.jpg

As if Cape May Autumn Weekend weren't reason enough to visit New Jersey, or the first ever Bird Blog Conference, there's now another incentive: Birds and Beers--Cape May edition!

That's right, Friday night, October 26, 2007 at 8pm I'm hosting a Birds and Beers at the Jackson Mountain Cafe. Anyone interested in birds is welcome to attend--from the hard core to the beginner to everyone in between. If you want to meet some people, talk some birds and have a beverage or two, this it the place for you.

Here are the bird bloggers that I know are coming to Cape May for the bird festival that you could meet:

10,000 Birds
Beginning To Bird
Birdchick
Blue Lizard Birding Blog
Born Again Bird Watcher
Hasty Brook
Hawk Owl's Nest
Jeff Gyr
Lake Life
Life, Birds, and Everything also does (Birders On The Border)
Leica Birding Blog
Somewhere in NJ
Susan Gets Native
WildBird on the Fly

Man, this bird festival is going to get a lot of coverage and publicity!

Whoot!

I just remembered that it was during this festival last year that our then host service lost their servers and I was freaking out because my blog disappeared. That was some panic. And if you weren't a reader then, here's a link to one of our adventures during the festival.

There's still time to sign up for this weekend long birding party.

Sorry Sharon - I'll be down next week, not later in the month.
Remember Uncle Bills - I'll try to leave you some pancakes. Love those potato pancakes - with Black Skimmers out the window. Can't be beat!

Sorry to miss you, Keith.

Mmmmmmm, Pumpkin Pancakes! Thanks for the reminder! That's a must visit restaurant, I seem to recall there was Internet access there as well.

Uncle Bill's rocks. I'm partial to the corn cakes, but I'll try the pumpkin ones this time.

Is there any better combo than talking birds and drinking beer?

If only the Calliope Hummingbird that is there now would stay till then! I might have to go this week if it stays! I do believe in ferrys!

All the non-birders who might want to come....after all the beer, you will WANT to be a birder!
And the cuteness and charisma of Sharon, a.k.a. Birdchick, would turn anyone into a crazy bird-lover.

Holy Crap!

This weekend just keeps getting better and better! I cannot wait to see you there! I've haven't seen you since ABA in Arizona.

I just updated that blog entry to include you! I assume you're part of the Good Birders Don't Wear White program on Saturday.

WHOOT!

Yep, I had already invited myself to the GBDWW event (thanks to the too-kind folks at CMBO for indulging me) and only just learned about the blogger confab. I'm countin' the days!
