Looking for a fun winter project to help the atlas? Snapshot Wisconsin is a partnership to monitor wildlife year-round, using a statewide network of trail cameras.
Those of you that attended our Final Season Kickoff got to meet eBird's Ian Davies. Ian wanted to share his congratulations and let Wisconsin Atlasers know that the platform we've built continues to lead the way.Â
The five-year atlas data collection period began in 2015 and ends on December 31, 2019. If you are sitting on any remaining atlas checklists that you intended to get in, please do so ASAP!
The fifth and final year of field work is now complete for the Wisconsin Breeding Bird Atlas! We owe a sincere THANK YOU to the more than 2,000 atlasers who have contributed to Wisconsin Breeding Bird Atlas II.
Here's a big surprise for the end of our final season! The Glossy Ibis pair that has been at Horicon Marsh all summer apparently nested successfully!
All 1,283 priority and specialty blocks in the state are marked complete! We had almost 500 blocks left to finish at the start of these season, but we got it done!
What will you do with your life now that field work for WBBA II is wrapping up? What happens next for the project?
Migrants are coming, so we're aiming to finish by Sunday August 11! Talk to a County Coordinator about how you can help or just go knock one out.
We are now down to the final 47 blocks (of 1283) in the project. We'll need to work together to make sure nothing slips through the cracks.
It’s coming together! We have a plan for most blocks, but some still need help and it will take a team effort to finish everything.
