Hi all, Due to overwhelming interest from nearby counties, we have decided to expand the eBirdathon 2011 contest to *also include Rockland, Orange, Putnam, Sullivan, Ulster and Dutchess counties*, in addition to the eight previously announced. The contest will now span all of Kingbird Regions 9 and 10 as defined by the New York Ornithological Association.
As before, official information is available here: http://warblings.wordpress.com/ebirdathon-2011/. Rankings, when generated, will be available here: http://novahunter.blogspot.com/2010/12/nyc-area-ebird-thon-2011.html. Many thanks to the Cornell Lab for providing the additional prizes. See you in the field!
