At this stage there isn't a general chat anymore but there's is a replacement rangers chat on a separate site. The address is on a pinned post at the top of the FB Rangers page.

I love that first pic with its beak wide open and we can see its little tongue! Also loved your little video - loved hearing the other Eastern Meadowlark responding! Thank you for sharing! :)
