NETFO(Northeast Texas Field Ornithologists)
We invite you to join us for meetings, field trips and other birding activities here in Northeast Texas.
Our Meetings are generally on the first Tuesday of each month (September through May). We meet at 6:30 p.m. in the Parish Hall of St. Mary's Catholic Church, located on Hollybrook between Judson Road and Fourth Street in Longview, Texas. The Parish Hall is the building at the far end of the parking lot from Hollybrook.
Our Newsletter has been discontinued until we can find a volunteer or volunteers to publish one. In the meantime, postcards are being mailed out to remind members about our meetings and other activities, and monthly bird reports are posted on this web site, along with information about our meetings and other activities.
Annual membership dues are $10. You can send a check (payable to NETFO) to our treasurer, Gene Peiter, at 603 Loraine Court, Longview, Texas 75604. Or you can pay him at one of our meetings. Be sure to give him your postal mailing address if you want to receive our postcard notices, and your E-mail address if you want to receive E-mail notices about area birding activities.
Our Bird Alert reports are compiled and distributed by Peter Barnes. Peter (along with Matt White) also compiles and edits our local bird reports for North American Birds. Be sure to report your noteworthy Northeast Texas bird sightings to Peter each month. To get on his E-mail list, or to report bird sightings, contact Peter (E-mail: peter.barnes(at)uthct.edu). Our Bird Reports web page offers additional information about reporting your Northeast Texas bird sightings.
Our Checklist, Birds of Northeast Texas, Second Edition, 1999, is available for $2 at our regular monthly meetings or by contacting Candy Troop -- E-mail: candratroop(at)hotmail.com.
