Joe Wing also included some excellent photos in his eBird report from the Wayne County part of the Mucklands on 10 March - very sharp, detailed, well-lit, and only slightly obstructed. A joy to see. Thanks, Gary Kohlenberg, for pointing this out, I’d somehow overlooked them. - - Dave Nutter >

Right, the most elegant way would be to provide the full URL when referencing a checklist in a post, so no searching or copying-and-pasting needed. So: https://ebird.org/atlasny/checklist/S104578240 Or the Macaulay Library search by county and species (with Show Unconfirmed checked to include
