To the Editor

The Providence Journal

Reporter Arthur Sulzberger's fine feature, “Jamestown Osprey-Cam Up and Running at Marsh Meadows,” (April 20) was an accurate and well balanced account of the Conanicut Island Raptor Project and the healthy debate it has sparked in the Jamestown community. Jamestown Education Foundation, which provided funding for the project, would be remiss not to acknowledge the following cooperating sponsors for their support: The Audubon Society of Rhode Island, Jamestown Conservation Commission, Rhode Island Bridge and Turnpike Authority, Town of Jamestown, Dr. Robert Bierregaard of University of North Carolina Charlotte, James Talcott Fund, and Flint Audio-Video.
