Christmas Bird Count (CBC) season is upon us again! This is a great time to join others and cooperate in a massive effort across the Western Hemisphere to take a snapshot of bird occurrence around the holidays.
Please join us in congratulating Bob Walker of Los Alamos, New Mexico, winner of the September 2019 eBird Challenge, sponsored by Carl Zeiss Sports Optics. Bob’s name was drawn randomly from 2,008 eBirders who submitted at least 20 eligible eBird checklists with eBird Mobile ‘tracks’ less than 5km (3 mi) in September.
The 2019 eBird taxonomy update is COMPLETE. At this stage, all major taxonomic changes should be complete.
