Re: [nysbirds-l] Real-time bird alerts for Manhattan, Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens

Sean and all, Let me address your issues point-by-point. No one is required to post on anything, and no one is required to "chase" any of the alerts. You and all birders are free to post as you see fit or not post, for whatever reasons you have -- ethical or otherwise. None of the county alerts

The storm on radar last night headed north and never quite reached the metro area, and landing densities this AM were on the weak side.  There still may be a few new birds, though more in western sites over NJ than here. Good early spring birding, Peter -- NYSbirds-L List Info:
