Hi COBirders, Common Redpoll has not yet been documented online for the CBRC in the following counties: Adams, Alamosa, Arapahoe, Archuleta, Baca, Boulder, Chaffee, Cheyenne, Clear Creek, Denver, Gilpin, Gunnison, Hinsdale, Kiowa, Kit Carson, La Plata, Lake, Las Animas, Lincoln, Mineral, Moffat, Montezuma, Morgan, Otero, Park, Phillips, Prowers, Rio Blanco, Saguache, San Miguel, Sedgwick, Washington, or Yuma
Have you seen Common Redpoll in any of these counties? If so, please consider documentation for the CBRC. The Colorado Bird Records Committee would like to have documentation for the Common Redpoll invasion this year. We would very much appreciate documentations for new counties, AND documentations for all occurrences in areas away from the northern Front Range (SE corner, San Luis Valley, West Slope, etc.), as well as first/last dates of "major" feeder flocks regardless of location (e.g., Discovery Museum, Larimer County) so we capture the full extent of the invasion. If you would like to use the online system, instructions are below. If you would rather use paper, let me know and I can email you a form that you can print out. But, using the CBRC online system is easy. If you have never submitted an online record before you will need to create a user profile before submitting your documentation. You can do this here: http://cfobirds.org/CBRC/register.php If you are already registered or after you have finished completing your profile, please go to: http://cfobirds.org/CBRC/login.php to sign in. After signing in click on "Enter a Record" from the top menu (http://cfobirds.org/CBRC/records/index.php) to enter your documentation. Here you will find the easy to use online form. In the first step choose the drop down menu for "Common Name." Choose "Common Redpoll". Complete this section and then continue with the rest of the form. You can submit photos or other media at the end of this process. You can also follow your record as it goes through the committee by signing into your account at any time and clicking on "My Sightings". I can help you if you run into any problems along the way so please let me know if you hit a snag. We appreciate your help in keeping Colorado's bird database complete! Thanks all. ------------------ Rachel Hopper Secretary Colorado Bird Records Committee <http://cfobirds.org/records/records_committee.htm> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
