I have my options set to "daily digest" and I don't seem to get any attached images. Does anyone else have this problem? Would it be better for senders of...
I'm pretty sure that's exactly the way yahoogroups works with attached images (all groups - not just this one). For people who have somewhere to put the images...
Dear all, Please look at the two pics taken at Killybegs, Ireland on 05.02.07 At first glance, this birds looks good for an ad. Herring Gull "argenteus" but...

Dear all, i saw quite a variety of gulls at near Houston yesterday; here are the more interesting ones: http://www.martinreid.com/Gull%20website/sbgup23.html -...
Martin, Gullsp184 and 185 look like first winter YL (presumably) atlantis to me. I am not saying they are, but they are more like YL than the LBBG seen here. ...
Dear Barry, Thanks for your opinion; do they look like the YLGUs you get on Tenerife, or are they a bit different (how?)? I don't suppose you can get me/us any...
