It is of course rather fitting that in the shadow of the New Year, Chat Happens renewed its domain and secured its place on the World Wide Web for another year. With this renewal one conjures up images of spring and a fresh start. While still a solid 3-4 months away before we start feeling the effects of it, we can’t help but recall the images and sounds of spring- ephemeral flowers, warm breezes, and singing birds. This feeling of freshness is one that we at Chat Happens are hoping to bring into 2008. With the new year look forward to new written and illustrated content, new layouts, and of course all of your favorites that you have come to love. We like to believe that we made the Roger Tory Peterson Institutes’ list of favorite websites for a reason.

With that said, we also look forward to hearing from you! In fact your participation and response is what makes this site so great. Over the last two years we have seen what posts and articles have garnered the most responses, and we look forward to bringing more content like that to come. So feel free to stop by, and of course say hello. And while you are at it, please leave comments regarding the site and what you like and what you don’t.

Wishing you all the very best. Happy New Year, and Good Birding,

Chad Witko (Chat Happens Co-Founder)
