A marker was created for Bellport Bay Yacht Club in Suffolk County based on Mike McBrien's recent post about the gull roost. The hotspot should be available within 12 hours.
If you wish to merge your personal location with an existing hotspot here are the steps: — Sign into eBird.org — Go to "My eBird" & select "Manage My Locations" in the right panel — At the bottom of the screen click "Show All" to see all locations on one page — You can sort the list by clicking on any of the headers: Location, Country, State/Province, County, Type* or # of Checklists — Select your personal location (it will show a letter "P" under Type*) by clicking "Edit" on the right side of the line — Select the "Merge" button and you'll see all nearby hotspots as red icons — Keep the checkmark for "Delete after merging" selected — Click the icon that best fits your location — ... now you'll see the hotspot description above the 'Merge' button along with the # of checklists you'll be merging — Click on the 'Merge' button — Answer Yes to the 'Yes or No' query All checklists for that personal location will be combined with the hotspot with this process. -- Ben Cacace Manhattan, NYC Wiki for NYS eBird Hotspots <http://ebirding-nys.wikispaces.com/Birding+in+New+York> Facebook Discussion for NYS eBird Hotspots <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/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/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/ --
