The wag of Professor Wylie's fingers would often give us a hint on the bird song we were listening too and we took advantage of that during testing. "One finger for the Robin, two for the Scarlet Tananger and three for the Rose-breasted Grossbeak". Professor Wylie was an inspirong and engaging teacher. He touched many of us in his Ornithology and Natural Resources of West Virginia classes at WVU. Thanks for the Memory. Roger.
