Re: [cayugabirds-l] N. Parula??? [was Prairie Warbler???]

2017-04-21 Thread Dave Nutter 
Reports of rare birds (including those within range but early or late by the 
calendar) do not get incorporated into eBird's database so that they can be 
searched by species until they are reviewed and deemed credible, which can take 
a few days. But you can see rare bird reports before they are reviewed by 
subscribing to eBird's Rare Bird Alerts for any county or state. 

The reports that I saw were by Chris Wood seen & heard along the old railroad 
grade east of Monkey Run Road (south), and by Brad Walker heard between the 
Woodleton Boardwalk and Sapsucker Woods Rd. Chris heads up the eBird program 
and I believe is one of the reviewers for Tompkins County. He also provided a 
detailed description of the bird's plumage & song so that any reviewer would 
recognize it. Anyway when he gets around to it, it will surely be added to the 
database. Brad, another expert birder who works at the Lab of O, included a 
description of the song he heard which was also enough to ID the bird.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] N. Parula??? [was Prairie Warbler???]

2017-04-21 Thread Alicia Plotkin 
Was wondering where these lucky folks were birding?  No Parula's are 
showing up in eBird in NYS except for a posting from Sullivan County, 
haven't seen anything posted to this list, either.  An eBird listing 
might require moderator approval but would hope that was happening 
quickly this time of year, when arrival times are so variable and many 
exceptions occur.
