    Kate, Heartfelt congratulations on your 80th. You probably don´t remember this, but I was on the detail to pick-up your peace corps group upon arrival in the DR in 1994. I actually remember you calling out the bananaquits that frequent the training center as your first endemics. You turned a forester into a birder. I bought my first pair of binoculars right after your training program. Thanks to those, I and my children have enjoyed birding. In fact, my kids still talk about a fine day spent on the Laguna de Cabral with you. Your work had had an immense impact here in the DR and wishing you many more years of health and happiness. Thank you for all you have done. Rob Crowley

    Here’s wishing you the happiest of birthdays Kate! Though I only get a chance to see you at meetings, your passion, enthusiasm and willingness to help others is always on display and has no equal!! What you have done to promote the appreciation of birds in the DR is truly amazing and you should be tremendous proud of your accomplishments.

    Abrazos,

    Herb
