Re: [cobirds] Re: Great Backyard Bird Count

Hi Colorado Birders,

Some of the checklists submitted whether via eBird or GBBC will have species that are unusual for the location or in unusually high numbers. Such unusual species or high counts are caught by eBird's county filter system and flagged for review by eBird reviewers. The GBBC event is anticipated to lead to an increase in submissions and review load. So it is very helpful for the review process if birders are proactive and, if prompted due to rarity or high count, please always provide some supporting descriptive notes about the bird if it is flagged as unusual, or notes about how a high count was made. For species flagged as "rare", include details about what you saw and/or heard that led to your identification. For the latter you could indicate, for example, that the high count was an exact count, or you kept an ongoing tally, an you made a careful estimate, or it is a rough guess at a number.

According to the gbbc website, " If you already participate in the eBird citizen-science project, please use eBird to submit your sightings during the GBBC. Your checklists will count toward the GBBC."
 
Have a great weekend,
