Re: [cayugabirds-l] More CBC birds for 2013

Thanks for sharing this, Ken. Good sightings, Chris. But let's not forget the importance of counting all of those boring Chickadees and Juncos and the dedicated counters who contribute! Someone has to do it! Laura Laura Stenzler l...@cornell.edu On Jan 2, 2013, at 11:11 PM, Kenneth Victor

Thanks Kevin for this important clarification that will lift the spirits of participants who trudged many hours on a snowy, blowy day. Thanks to all of you who spent the last day of holidays counting birds together. It is quite an amazing group effort and quite a wonderful bonding experience.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] More CBC birds for 2013

The other issue I’ve been wondering about is counts of migrating birds crossing the count circle, in particular migrating swans this year. Perhaps this was addressed at the compilation dinner, otherwise I suspect the 396 total that Dave posted in his quick summary involves flocks being counted

There was some discussion of potential multiple-counting of Tundra Swan flocks,but not a flock-by-flock analysis, and I don't think any adjustments were made among sectors at the compilation. Sector leaders may have tried to adjust among parties in their sector beforehand. I think it would be a

In talking to Chris Wood some more today, I realized that he had seen several other species yesterday that were not found by official counters of the CBC -- really shows what kind of diversity a top birder can find when they are covering the whole area looking for target birds instead of
