[nysbirds-l] Report of Dovekie, Jamaica Bay (Queens, NYC)
I just relayed this unconfirmed eBird report on https://twitter.com/BirdQueens and https://twitter.com/BirdBrklyn: a rider of the Wall Street to Rockaway Ferry reports having seen a Dovekie this afternoon "just prior to entering Jamaica Bay." It seems possible that this bird, if it is still around, might also be scoped from Floyd Bennett Field. https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S42646580 David Barrett Manhattan -- 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/ --

[nysbirds-l] County & State Listing - Send in your 2017 Data
Hey Listers! The NYSOA (New York State Ornithological Association) County and State Listing Project is accepting data for 2017. If you want to get your numbers into the 2017 report, don't miss the March 1 deadline. Data may be submitted online at http://nybirds.org/ProjCountyLists.html, via fax, via email, or via USPS. If you're new to this and would like to know more, please read on. The County and State Listing Project is a fun, friendly competition run by NYSOA. Started in 1992, it continues to attract new participants every year. Some of our first county listers have not missed a single year since the beginning (watch out, you might get hooked!). Berna Lincoln, who started this project in 1992, passed away last fall - a tremendous loss for NYSOA and all of her friends. Berna's objective in setting up this competition was to encourage birders of all levels to get out and bird the many habitats of New York State and report their sightings throughout the year to local clubs and NYSOA's regional editors. Today eBird is added to that list. The state, county, and regional life list competitions inject some additional fun into the important "work" of birding and reporting the birds we see all over NYS. So here's how it works. After the close of each calendar year, participants send in their LIFE list totals for all of NYS, the 10 Kingbird regions, and/or the 62 counties, and/or the PELAGIC ZONE (PZ) that was added just last year. In addition, we have one YEAR list category - for the entire state. You can send in just one number or as many as 75, or anywhere in between - it's your choice depending on where you've birded and what records you've kept. A compilation is produced annually and published in NYSOA's newsletter and also on the NYSOA website at http://nybirds.org/ProjCountyLists.html. Forms, a map of the ten Kingbird regions, and details on the new Pelagic Zone are available on that web page also. Join in on the fun and see where you stand - statewide, region by region, county by county - in comparison with other birders all over the state (and even outside the state). To see what the annual compilation looks like, check out the archive at http://nybirds.org/ProjCountyLists.html. But don't miss the deadline! And remember, no reports submitted in previous years are automatically carried into the next. If you want to be listed, you must submit your report, even if your numbers haven't changed since the last one you sent in. If you've already submitted your 2017 report, thanks! If not, I await your data with bated breath!
