Bill & all,
Your postings today about the current status of our sparrows demonstrates why I
love eBird so much and why it is such an important program.
The biggest reason I enjoy using eBird is the instant access to tons of data on
bird observations and secondly being able to contribute to the database.
For those not familiar with eBird I would encourage you to check out
www.ebird.org and start submitting checklist. You don't have to go crazy like
some of us and submit hundreds of checklist a year (although the data would be
nice) even just a weekly checklist or incidental submission would be
beneficial. However, I will say this, in my case after you get used to using
eBird and submitting checklist it can become addicting! Everyone should use
eBird. It's free and it contributes so much to bird conservation and management
on multiple levels. To everyone already involved with eBird in TN...Thank you
for your time and for using eBird!
