The birding report referenced in Susan's e-mail is an addendum to the 2001
National Survey of Fishing, Hunting and Wildlife-Associated Recreation.
The full report which covers the survey methodologies can be found at:

Thanks for the link to this report, Susan!
I have one question, though -- although I did not read the report word
for
word, I was not able to figure out who the respondents were and how they
came to be surveyed. Where did FWS get the names of the people to receive
surveys? Hunting & fishing licenses? People visiting national wildlife
refuges (NWR)?
Thanks to anyone on this list who might be able to address this topic, as I
doubt that I'm the only one who's wondering!
