The First Records are posted in 2 forms. In the Taxonomic version it’s theoretically easier to look up a particular species to learn whether it has already been reported and if so, when. That table is in the current taxonomic sequence used by eBird. With scientific advances, this sequence has changed considerably over the years, but I have labeled each family to make it easier to orient oneself while scrolling through. The Chronological version starts with everything found on New Year’s Day of this year, all 106 species. Birds in the Chronological table are also in eBird’s current Taxonomic order within each day. Getting to the fewer species which were first reported in the most recent days requires scrolling to the bottom. Armed with this information, I hope everyone can more quickly and easily navigate the lists, and spend more time finding actual birds. I also want to thank Paul Anderson, who is the Club’s Webmaster and Compiler of the Ithaca “Christmas” Bird Count (actually taken on New Year’s Day). He programmed the tables to automatically fill in the Taxonomic version as I add species to the Chronological version, so I make fewer errors (and when I do, they are at least internally consistent!). - - Dave Nutter On Jan 7, 2023, at 9:31 PM, Dave Nutter <nutter.d...@me.com<mailto:nutter.d...@me.com>> wrote: Hi All, The 2023 Cayuga Lake Basin First Records tables are up and (I hope) running on the Cayuga Bird Club website’s Resources page. Species found multiple times on the Ithaca Christmas Bird Count on New Year’s Day are presumed to be generally in the area, and say “Ithaca CBC” for both the observer(s) and the location. Otherwise I try to include all observers and locations (according to eBird anyway) on the first day the species was reported. Let me know if it looks like I got something wrong or left something out. - - Dave Nutter -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics<http://www.northeastbirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME> Rules and Information<http://www.northeastbirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES> Subscribe, Configuration and Leave<http://www.northeastbirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm> Archives: The Mail Archive<http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html> Surfbirds<http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds> BirdingOnThe.Net<http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html> Please submit your observations to eBird<http://ebird.org/content/ebird/>! -- -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: Welcome and Basics<http://www.northeastbirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME> Rules and Information<http://www.northeastbirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES> Subscribe, Configuration and Leave<http://www.northeastbirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm> Archives: The Mail Archive<http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html> Surfbirds<http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds> BirdingOnThe.Net<http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html> Please submit your observations to eBird<http://ebird.org/content/ebird/>! -- -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
