Hotspots for eBird bar charts September 15 – 21
9:16 pm
Greetings,
Two more hotspots now have complete bar charts! (Denk Mountain and San Dieguito Dr south)
As we get into the fall migration season, bar charts for these weeks are especially interesting – showing when migratory species like YRWA begin to arrive.
Next week we have the opportunity to complete SDBA’s Silverwood Wildlife Sanctuary, which is only open certain hours on Wednesday and Saturday. Luckily, weather should be cooperative this time!
If you’re just joining us, please see this message for an explanation of these weekly hotspot lists: https://groups.io/g/SanDiegoRegionBirding/topic/hotspots_for_ebird_bar_charts/119585667
