Thanks for the link, Scott. I know that will be helpful.
I am learning more of the 4 letter abbreviations but I think it's appropriate for the person posting to state the bird's name completely once in the posting. There are a lot of us that get tons of emails and are just trying to wade through them. Having to do research on a website so that we know what the poster is reporting discourages that .
Also, I think it's helpful and welcoming to people new to the list and/or new to birding to have the information given to them in and easy to understand fashion.
