Re: [cobirds] Re: Clarification on RBA

Thanks, Diana, and just for the record, the numbers on our volunteer team had shrunk to the point that we no longer could compile in more frequent weekly rotations and still have lives beyond the RBA.
We continue to marvel at how Joyce Takamine did this largely by herself for more than a decade.

Monumental task? Yes.
Thankless? Not at all.
Unfortunately, we could not recruit and retain willing volunteers to help us continue.

Thanks for understanding, and good birding to all.

The volunteers no longer wish to take on the monumental thankless task of compiling it every day.

Today I noticed that there was no RBA and that there is talk of discontinuing the RBA. Why is this? Why stop now? Was it causing a problem? As someone who gets both the ebird and cobird alerts I find that the cobirds is more thorough and detailed. It would be very disappointing to see it be discontinued.
