[nysbirds-l] NYS eBird Hotspots: State, Counties & Locations Updated (Sep/'18)

[Ben Cacace]

Thanks to @Team_eBird for their dedication to keeping eBird.org running
smoothly and for the group of New York State hotspot moderators for their
time reviewing shared location suggestions.

The wiki page site was developed to access data on eBird.org and in places
it includes additional links to birding resources at the county and
location levels. If you have any suggestions for additional links please
send them to me off list.

All County pages currently have links for the *Illustrated Checklists* and
links to both *Images and Audio from the Macaulay Library*.

Species totals have been updated for all county pages. This includes the
total number of species with an equivalent color code highlighting the
county name based on colors used on eBird maps. The alphabetical list of
counties on the main page has been updated with total spp. #.

*Hotspot pages*: All location pages have been updated on the wiki. These
include 926 pages representing a total of 1,906 out of 6,280 hotspots
(30.4%). Updates involve # of species and color codings based on species #
along with updated 2018 periods on the bar chart tables displaying the:

• Current Month: Sep./2018
• Prior Month: Aug./2018
• the current two month period Aug.-Sep./2018
• along with the current year: 2018

For the following counties there are individual 'dynamic' wiki pages for
the Top 10+ locations at the top of the list of shared locations: Cayuga,
Erie, Monroe, Niagara, Orange, Oswego, Seneca, Tompkins, Kings (Brooklyn),
Queens, Richmond (Staten Island), Nassau and Suffolk Counties. Westchester
and New York (Borough of Manhattan) Counties have all shared locations
linked to wikipages.

Counties with 'static' pages do not need to be maintained on a monthly
basis. These include pages for the Top 10+ locations and includes Albany,
Bronx, Broome, Chautauqua, Clinton, Columbia, Delaware, Dutchess, Essex,
Genesee, Greene, Hamilton, Jefferson, Livingston, Madison, Oneida,
Onondaga, Ontario, Orleans, Rensselaer, Rockland, St. Lawrence, Saratoga,
Sullivan, Ulster & Wayne with Putnam County currently having all shared
locations linked to wikipages.

An alphabetical list of all hotspots (6,280) can be found on a single page.
Links exist for any hotspot with a wikipage. Clicking the county name to
the right of any hotspot will bring up the county page showing all county
hotspots. A link to the alphabetical list page is at the bottom of this
message. There is a link to the page at the top of the New York State page.

*Bar Charts (Species Lists)*: For all county and Top 10+ location pages
there's a table showing the months, seasons and several time frames for the
current year. Clicking any of these links will bring up a complete list of
species and other taxa with bar charts representing abundance. To see a
list of species for *all* periods click on the name above the months i.e.
'New York State (489 spp.)' or 'New York County (324 spp.)'.

*Maps of sightings*: After bringing up a bar chart list you'll see a MAP
button to the right of each species. Clicking this will produce a map of
the latest sightings. Red icons show sightings within the past 30 days.
Click on the icons to see a list of who reported each species and click on
'Checklist' to view their submission. Click on 'Explore Rich Media' in the
right sidebar to view locations with photos, audio or video. These also
exist for any multi-location page combining the hotspots associated with
the location i.e. Niagara Falls State Park in Niagara County with its 4
locations.

*Printable Checklists*: a link has been created to produce an eBird
checklist (PDF format) for all hotspots on the wiki site. Additional
details are in this email sent to the list <
https://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/msg20153.html >.

Tide Graphs exist for *New York County*, *Kings County (Brooklyn)* and
*Richmond
County (Staten Island)*. There's a quick link to the tide graphs on the "Go
To >" line highlighted in blue for each location. If there are multiple
graphs on a page the left/right is generally north/south or west/east. If
you spot any issues please let me know off line.

Click '*Overview*' on any of the wiki pages to bring up a sortable list of
all species along with the latest checklists submitted and a list of the
Top eBirders. The default sort is for the latest additions to the State,
County or location.

Check out '*My Location Life List*', '*My County Life List*' and '*My State
Life List*' links to bring up your details on the respective pages.

For each location page click on '*Google Map Directions*' to bring up a
Google Map page. On Google Maps click 'Directions' then 'Transit' to plot a
public transportation route. By clicking 'More Options and Times' you can
refine your search. This also works with 'Driving' and 'Walking'.

[nysbirds-l] NYS eBird Hotspots: State, Counties & Locations Updated (Mar/'17)

[Ben Cacace]

Thanks to @Team_eBird for their dedication to keeping eBird.org running
smoothly and for the group of New York State hotspot moderators for their
time reviewing shared location suggestions.

The wiki page site was developed to access data on eBird.org and in places
it includes additional links to birding resources at the county and
location levels. If you have any suggestions for additional links please
send them to me off list.

*Species totals* have been updated for all county pages. This includes the
total number of species with an equivalent color code highlighting the
county name based on colors used on eBird maps. The alphabetical list of
counties on the main page has been updated with total spp. #.

*Hotspot pages*: All location pages have been updated on the wiki. These
include 534 pages representing a total of 1,143 out of 5,455 hotspots (21.0%).
Updates involve # of species and color codings based on species # along
with updated 2017 periods on the bar chart tables displaying the Current
Month: Mar./2017, Prior Month: Feb./2017 and the current two month period
Feb.-Mar./2017 along with the current year: 2017.

For the following counties there are individual wiki pages for the *Top 10
locations* at the top of the list of shared locations: Cayuga, Erie,
Monroe, Niagara, Orange, Oswego, Seneca, Tompkins, Kings (Brooklyn),
Queens, Richmond (Staten Island), Nassau and Suffolk Counties. *Westchester
and New York (Borough of Manhattan) Counties have all shared locations*
linked to wikipages.

Counties with *'static' pages* do not need to be maintained on a monthly
basis. These include pages for at least the Top 10 locations: Chautauqua,
Bronx, Hamilton, Jefferson & Onondaga. *Putnam County has all shared
locations* linked to wikipages.

*Bar Charts (Species Lists)*: For all county and top 10 location pages
there are tables showing the months, seasons and several time frames for
the current year. Clicking any of these links will bring up a complete list
of species and other taxa with bar charts representing abundance. To see a
list of species for *all* periods click on the name above the months i.e.
'New York State (478 spp.)' or 'Essex County (270 spp.)'.

*Maps of sightings*: After bringing up a bar chart list you'll see a MAP
button to the right of each species. Clicking this will produce a map of
the latest sightings. Red icons show sightings within the past 30 days.
Click on the icons to see a list of who reported each species and click on
'Checklist' to view their submission. Click on 'Explore Rich Media' in the
right sidebar to view locations with photos, audio or video. These also
exist for any multi-location page combining the hotspots associated with
the location i.e. Tonawanda Wildlife Management Area in Monroe County with
its 17 locations.

*Printable Checklists*: a link has been created to produce an eBird
checklist (PDF format) for all hotspots on the wiki site. Additional
details are in this email sent to the list <
https://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/msg20153.html >.

*Tide Graphs* exist for New York County, Kings County (Brooklyn) and
Richmond County (Staten Island). There's a quick link to the tide graphs on
the "Go To >" line highlighted in blue for each location. If there are
multiple graphs on a page the left/right is generally north/south or
west/east. If you spot any issues please let me know off line.

Click '*Overview*' on any of the wiki pages to bring up a sortable list of
all species along with the latest checklists submitted and a list of the
Top eBirders. The default sort is for the latest additions to the State,
County or location.

Check out '*My Location Life List*', '*My County Life List*' and '*My State
Life List*' links on their respective pages.

For each location page click on '*Google Map Directions*' to bring up a
Google Map page. On Google Maps click 'Directions' then 'Transit' to plot a
public transportation route. By clicking 'More Options and Times' you can
refine your search. This also works with 'Driving' and 'Walking'.

[nysbirds-l] NYS eBird Hotspots: State, Counties & Locations Updated (Dec/'16)

[Ben Cacace]

Thanks to @Team_eBird for their dedication to keeping eBird.org running
smoothly and for the group of New York State hotspot moderators for their
time reviewing shared location suggestions.

The wiki page site was developed for accessing data on eBird.org and
includes additional links to birding resources at the county and location
levels.

Species totals have been updated for all county pages. This includes the
total number of species with the equivalent color code highlighting the
county name based on the colors used on eBird's maps. The alphabetical list
of counties on the main page has been updated with total spp. #.

*Hotspot pages*: All location pages have been updated on the wiki. These
include 380 pages representing a total of 860 out of 5,274 hotspots
(16.3%). Updates involve # of species and color codings based on species #
along with updated 2016 periods for the bar chart tables displaying the
Month: Dec./2016 and the current two month period Nov. - Dec./2016 along
with the current year.

For the following counties there are individual wiki pages for the *Top 10
locations* at the top of the list of shared locations: Cayuga, Erie,
Monroe, Niagara, Orange, Oswego, Seneca, Tompkins, Kings (Brooklyn),
Queens, Richmond (Staten Island), Nassau and Suffolk Counties. For
Westchester County and New York (Borough of Manhattan) County all hotspots
have links to shared location pages.

*Bar Charts* (Species Lists): For all county and top 10 location pages
there are tables showing the months, seasons and several time frames for
the current year. Clicking any of these will bring up a complete list of
species and other taxa with bar charts representing abundance. To see a
list of species for *all* periods click on the name above the months i.e.
'New York State (473 spp.)' or 'Delaware County (223 spp.)'.

*Maps of sightings*: After bringing up a bar chart list you'll see a MAP
button to the right of each species. Clicking this will produce a map of
the latest sightings. Red icons show sightings within the past 30 days.
Click on the icons to see a list of who reported each species and click on
'Checklist' to view their submission. Click on 'Explore Rich Media' in the
right sidebar to view locations with photos, audio or video. These also
exist for any multi-location page combining the hotspots associated with
the location i.e. Durand-Eastman Park in Monroe County with its 16
locations.

*Printable Checklists*: a link has been created to produce an eBird
checklist (PDF format) for all hotspots on the wiki site. Additional
details are in this email sent to the list <
https://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/msg20153.html >.

*Tide Graphs* exist for New York County, Kings County (Brooklyn) and
Richmond County (Staten Island). There's a quick link to the tide graphs on
the "Go To >" line highlighted in blue for each location. If there are
multiple graphs on a page the left/right is generally north/south or
west/east. If you spot any issues please let me know off line.

Click 'Overview' on any of the wiki pages to bring up a sortable list of
all species along with the latest checklists submitted and a list of the
Top eBirders.

Check out 'My Location Life List', 'My County Life List' and 'My State Life
List' links on their respective pages.

For each location page click on 'Google Map Directions' to bring up a
Google Map page. On Google Maps click 'Directions' then 'Transit' to plot a
public transportation route. By clicking 'More Options and Times' you can
refine your search. This also works with 'Driving' and 'Walking'.

[nysbirds-l] NYS eBird Hotspots - State, Counties & Locations Updated (Sep/'15)

[Ben Cacace]

Thanks to @Team_eBird for the work they put into keeping this site running
and for the group of New York State hotspot moderators for their time
working on shared location suggestions.

Newly created and renamed hotspots have been updated on the 62 county wiki
pages. You can find a summary of the changes here with clickable links
where a dedicated hotspot (shared location) page exists:

http://ebirding-nys.wikispaces.com/NewHotspots
http://ebirding-nys.wikispaces.com/RenamedHotspots

County totals have been updated for all county pages. This includes the
total number of species with the equivalent color code highlighting the
county name based on the colors on eBird.org maps. The alphabetical list on
the home page has also been updated with total spp. #.

*Hotspot pages*: All location pages have been updated on the wiki. These
include 207 pages representing a total of 634 hotspots. Updates involve #
of species and color codings based on species # along with updated 2015
periods for the bar chart tables displaying the Month: Sep./2015 and the
current two month period Aug. - Sep./2015 along with the current year.

*Newish feature*: Tide Graphs have been added for New York County, Kings
County (Brooklyn) and Richmond County (Staten Island). There's a quick link
to the tide graphs on the "Go To >" line highlighted in blue. If there are
multiple graphs on a page the left/right is generally north/south or
west/east. If you spot any issues please let me know off line.

For the following county pages the Top 10 locations appears at the top of
the list with links to the hotspot pages: Cayuga, Erie, Monroe, Niagara,
Orange, Oswego, Seneca, Tompkins, Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, Richmond
(Staten Island), Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester Counties. For New York
County (Borough of Manhattan) all hotspots have links to shared location
pages.

*Bar Charts*: On all county and location pages there are tables showing all
the months, seasons and several time frames for the current year. Clicking
any of these will bring up a complete list of species and other taxa with
bar charts representing abundance. To see a list of species for *all*
periods click on the name above the months i.e. 'New York State (467 spp.)'
or 'Albany (281 spp.)'.

*Mapped sightings*: After bringing up a bar chart list you'll see a MAP
button to the right of each species. Clicking this will produce a map of
the latest sightings. Red icons show sightings within the past 30 days.
Click on the icons to see a list of who reported the species. Click on
'Checklist' to view their full checklist.

Check out 'My Location Life List', 'My County Life List' and 'My State Life
List' links. Click 'Overview' on any of the pages to bring up a sortable
list of all species along with the latest checklists submitted and a list
of the Top eBirders.

Click on 'Google Map Directions' to bring up a Google Map page. On the
Google Map clicking 'Directions' then 'Transit' will plot a public
transportation route. By clicking 'More Options and Times' you can refine
your search. This also works with 'Driving' and 'Walking'.
