iNaturalist Needs for tomorrow and Monday
Hi all,
To the best of my knowledge, the following is a list of the birds we still need for this year's challenge. I know some of these birds have been reported on eBird, but I don't yet see them on the iNat link. So if you need help or haven't yet entered anything into iNat, please contact me offline and I'll be glad to help. It is super easy; even finding the lat/long is easy because of the map that's provided.
The letters A,+, A, B, C, D are an indication of how rare the bird is for the county.
Also email your added birds offline and I'll send an update around 8 pm. or so.
