I found it's not very obvious how to get your life list for a hotspot (shared location) or region on eBird. To access this feature I've been going to the 'Overview' page for each location. In the right column you'll see your statistics under 'Top eBirders'. If you are in the list of top eBirders (image #1: left) you can click the # of species you've seen to view your list (image #2). When you're outside the top 10 there's a line labeled 'You'. Clicking the # will bring up the same list (image #1: right).
On the NYS eBird Hotspots you can click on 'Overview' or to go directly to the list click on: • 'My State Life List' on the NYS page • 'My County Life List' on all 62 county pages • 'My Location Life List' for wiki pages that exist (currently 1,805 out of 6,045 locations) Click on the map or the alphabetical list of counties to navigate the site: • http://ebirding-nys.wikispaces.com/Birding+in+New+York Link for images: http://ebirding-nys.wikispaces.com/LocationLifeList Here are the steps to get there directly via eBird.org: For the county, state, province or country 'Overview' pages: • Click 'Explore' near the top of the eBird.org home page • Select 'Explore a Region' • Type in the county, state, province or country in the search box • Go to the Top eBirders section and click the # in the green bar by your name or 'You' For any of the hotspot 'Overview' pages: • Click 'Explore' near the top of the eBird.org home page • Select 'Explore Hotspots' • Type the location name in the search box • Click on 'View Details' in the pop-up box • Go to the Top eBirders section and click the # in the green bar by your name or 'You' -- Ben Cacace Manhattan, NYC Wiki for NYS eBird Hotspots <http://ebirding-nys.wikispaces.com/Birding+in+New+York> Facebook Discussion for NYS eBird Hotspots: Q & A <https://www.facebook.com/groups/NYeBirdHotspots/> -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
