Many of us use these reports and appreciate the updates. I took time off yesterday to chase the Avocet after getting one of these updates.
And while were at it, I know I would love more info about what's going on upstate. But since very few people actually report to the list from north of Rockland County the state list has become more of a NYC/Long Island list plus a report from the Adirondacks plus when something rare shows at Niagra or near Buffalo. It's a big state and 99% of it is unreported on this list. Ebirdsnyc is no good and used more to report feeder birds. Seems most of the upstate birders report to regional lists. What's the solution? maybe a region 10 list? But I doubt that will ever be widely used. Isaac Grant Senior Loan Officer > On Jul 31, 2014, at 4:48 PM, "Kevin J.
