[mou-net] Flicker
I saw a Flicker in the front yard (St Paul) this morning and, consulting Bob Janssen's Birds of Minnesota, confirmed that this was no big deal. It did prompt me to wonder and ask how the seasons are broken down in the MOU's occurrence maps. Are the seasons based on the meteorological seasons or the astronomical seasons? (For example, does a winter record date from Dec. 1 or Dec. 21?)

Winter = December, January, February Spring = March, April, May Summer = June, July Fall = August, September, October, November Janssen is good, but dated. MOU occurrence maps, Janssen's descendents, are current and constantly being updated.

Re: [mou-net] Flicker
Hi, Regarding the Janssen book, there is an updated 2019 version. I received it last year as a gift. I don’t have the original, but Janssen’s preface suggests substantial updates (top of page xix).
