Don't forget about the Rusty Blackbird Blitz.  Sightings from now through 13 
Feb 2011 are very important to help scientists figure out why this species has 
declined from 88 to 98% in the last few decades.

You are also encouraged to enter your checklist into eBird using the Rusty 
Blackbird Blitz "observation type".

I was in the field today and only found one male Rusty Blackbird.  Hoping for 
more tomorrow!

Cheers,
