Birdchaser in the New York Times

I'm quoted briefly in a New York Times article on bird flu that came out today. If you want to read the whole thing, go here (its a decent article). Otherwise, my meager quote is:
"It's hard to know what's going on," said Rob Fergus, science coordinator for the National Audubon Society. "But we're not seeing many wild birds dying nearby every time we find outbreaks in poultry."

I spoke with the reporter for over half an hour. If this was my best quote, I suppose I'm just lucky to have been quoted at all!

    They never ever quote the things you HOPE they will quote! (I was interviewed by the Deseret News last year and they made me sound like I had pinecones for brains!) Oh, well, that's very cool that you're actually IN the New York Times! We're going to have to pick up a copy!

    Sounds like you had fun in Florida!
