There are now links for *all* hotspots. Locations shown in italics & preceded with an asterisk brings up an eBird Hotspot Map giving direct access to 'Bar Charts', 'High Counts', the ability to 'Submit Data' & a link to the 'View Details' page which displays a full list of species plus 'Recent Visits' and Top eBirders for the location. 'Directions' here point to a Google Map view where the marker was placed.
On all dedicated pages (see below) the 'Direction' link is aiming to point to a nearby parking spot or an entrance to the site. *If you see any issues with these please let me know off list*. Hotspots shown in normal type without an asterisk have full pages dedicated to them. Currently 1,385 hotspots have dedicated pages representing 24.7% of 5,599 hotspots. On the *alphabetical listing of hotspots* all locations without a dedicated page are shown without links. Clicking the county link to the right of the location name will give you easy access to a linked version. Please note there are shared locations with no checklists yet. These have been set up based on reports submitted to mailing lists or based on the eBird Polygon Tool which reveals popular personal locations. Here's a link to an eBird help page if you wish to merge any personal locations with an existing hotspot: — http://help.ebird.org/customer/portal/articles/1010517-how-do-i-merge-a-personal-location-with-a-hotspot- Home page: — http://ebirding-nys.wikispaces.com/Birding+in+New+York Alphabetical list of hotspots: — http://ebirding-nys.wikispaces.com/AlphaHotspots -- Ben Cacace Manhattan, NYC Wiki for NYS eBird Hotspots <http://ebirding-nys.wikispaces.com/Birding+in+New+York> Facebook Discussion for NYS eBird Hotspots <https://www.facebook.com/groups/NYeBirdHotspots/> -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
