County totals have been updated for all county pages. This includes the total number of species with the equivalent color code based on eBird.org maps. The alphabetical list on the home page has also been updated with total spp. #.
*New feature*: Tide Graphs have been added for New York County, Kings County (Brooklyn) and Richmond County (Staten Island). There's a quick link to the tide graphs on the "Go To >" line highlighted in blue. If there are multiple graphs on a page the left/right is generally north/south or west/east. If you spot any issues please let me know off line. *Hotspot pages*: All location pages have been updated on the wiki. These include 207 pages representing a total of 634 hotspots. Updates involve # of species and color codings based on species # along with updated 2015 periods for the bar chart tables that display the Month: Aug/2015 and the current two month period Jul. - Aug./2015. For the following county pages the Top 10 locations appears at the top of the wiki page with links on these pages: Cayuga, Erie, Monroe, Niagara, Orange, Oswego, Seneca, Tompkins, Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, Richmond (Staten Island), Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester Counties. For New York County (Borough of Manhattan) all hotspots have links to shared location pages. *Bar Charts*: On all county and location pages there's a table for selecting any month or season along with several time frames for the current year. Clicking any of these will bring up a complete list of species and other taxa with bar charts representing abundance. To see a list of species for all months click on the name above the months i.e. 'New York State (469 spp.)'. *Mapped sightings*: After bringing up a list of species with bar charts you'll see a MAP button to the right of the species name. Clicking this will bring up a map of the latest sightings. Red icons show sightings within the past 30 days. Click on any icon to see a list of who reported that species. Click on 'Checklist' to view their full list. If there are local links for the page a green checkmark has been added to the left of 'Local Links'. Click this link and it'll bring you to this section of the current page. Check out '*My Location Life List*', '*My County Life List*' and '*My State Life List*' links. Click '*Overview*' on any of the pages to bring up a sortable list of all species along with the latest checklists submitted and a list of the Top eBirders.
