What the heck is the difference?  Personally, I favor the though that this
newsgroup is for *wild* birds (maybe rec.birders).  It doesn't get enough
traffic though.  So maybe rec.wildlife is the answer.  Those that wish to
discuss breeding domestic (read pet) birds should probably take it to rec.pet.
