Editor:
I read with interest the letters about the barred versus spotted owls in the Oct. 24 NCJ (Mailbox). Based on the tone and the content, I’d bet my bippy that Ken Burton is the only professional biologist/naturalist among the commenters. When we went to college together, I knew him as hard working and well educated. Based on that, and the credibility established above, if Ken says so on a topic like this, it quite likely is so.
Thank you for the opportunity to share my views.
