FYI Van Harris Millington, TN ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Janet Wright <jwright01@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, Sep 6, 2014 at 2:07 PM Subject: [missbird] World Shorebirds Day To: MissBird ListServ <missbird@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> I didn’t see World Shorebirds Day until a day or so ago - this is a worldwide count of shorebirds, being held this weekend (Sept 5-7). Too bad Mississippi missed out on planning, but if you logged any shorebirds anywhere in the state during those days, you can still submit your site and your count, and register for prizes! A good place to find out about it is the current page on ebird http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ Or if it’s not still there, https://worldshorebirdsday.wordpress.com/global-shorebird-counting/ and https://worldshorebirdsday.wordpress.com/2014/09/03/data-submission-with-ebird/ If you already submitted on ebird, you can still route that checklist to World Shorebirds day. Just do this: 1. Go to the worldshorebirdsday website (the link above) and register your site. 2. Get on ebird —> myebird —> manage my checklists and find the checklist you want to submit 3. Choose “share,” and on the share page, under “manage my contacts,” add worldshorebirdsday as a contact 4. then “share” with worldshorebirdsday. Next year let’s be ready! Janet
