Geno, all of the above, as you describe in all it's various flavors and shadings. Our "preserves" usually release birds on a fee/bird with the "release" anywhere from hours to a day or so in advance of the booked "party". Again there are all gradations and shadings to this. Generally the "preserve" season runs 2-3 times the length of the "wild" bird season. Our "preserves" are stricly a cash and carry enteprise. Hope the explanation helps, Dr. BILL
