Back Yard Banjo Pickers

I have contracted with the BYBP association to report about my backyard.
It doesn't pay much but they let me say I am contracted. In fact I haven't been paid yet.
I don't know what they want to know, as the info I have to fill out for the backyard is difficult to decipher as to intention. Anyway, a lot more goes on in my front yard than back there!
I am supposed to measure all visible bird manure found. We are furnished water-proof ponchos and runner gloves for that purpose.
We weigh it on gram scales--out of the wind. (wet).
Then the form asks for color, where all colors are located, is there more of one color than another, and finally, an opinion as to whether or not I think it is genuine bird manure (wet)!
I suppose somehow they can tell the kind of bird in that manner.
The next section on the form is about neighbor visitors to the back yard.
Such questions as to whether or not they are naked or fully clothed. Might they be responsible for some of my findings?
Most small children any more have absolutely NO discipline, or respect for other people or their property. So, one never knows what they might do!
The last section is about musicians. Do any every play back there? Are any of them banjo pickers, and if so how many strings on their banjo, and what style picking do they do?
More might come and play if the bird manure and messy kids weren't there much!
I don't know, but I have a feeling that this information is eventually to be used to form a Bird Manure Children
Pickin Discipline School and Blue-Grass band!
