*Table of Abundance by Month and Season (eBird.org)* One location, Plumb Beach in Brooklyn, has been added to the abundance table. I've shortened the months to 2 letters hoping this expands the location area for lower-resolution displays. The table was updated this afternoon.
The URLs below for the table has links to bar charts at eBird.org for the following areas including New York State, 8 southeast counties, 14 selected locations & 3 aggregates. This table is updated several times a week. http://novahunter.blogspot.com/2010/11/ebirdorg-nyc-area-abundance-charts.html *List of Top 3 and Contenders (eBird-a-thon 2011)* Here are recent updates to the notes section for the eBird-a-thon 2011 contest. See links at end of post. For each county there are links to: - the Top "100" observers for the year - species bar charts with links to a sighting map for each species - a list of recent arrivals in descending date order Details on the contest can be found at Benjamin Van Doren's site: Home page: http://warblings.wordpress.com/ Contest details: http://warblings.wordpress.com/ebirdathon-2011/ Here are the recent additions to the two regions over the past week.
