Re: [cobirds] "Mountain Pipit" in Cobirds rare bird alert

All,

I emailed this gentleman yesterday about his two checklists with the incorrect species entry.  He clearly had the right idea in his description but simply picked the wrong species looking for a subspecies option.  Awaiting the correction in Ebird...

Bird is the word!

Wow, I have never used it before.  Good thing we have reviewers to catch these.  Thanks Eric.

It is possible to select any species in the world from the app for a checklist. If you know what you want to call something, even if it's outrageous, you can click on the "can't find your bird?" link as seen in the attached photo. 

I actually had to use this the other day for the Limpkin!

I guess I should have said I am surprised that ebird had this as a choice as they first ask the location and then provide a list of birds that are possible in that location. I think it would require adding this species as  'rare' addition but that should followed by their warning that this species has not been reported there.  So I'm wondering if there is  glitch on ebird.

I'm sure it will get corrected. 
The person's notes even say it's an American Pipit. 
They probably don't use the app itself.

That species doesn't shoe when I open.my ebird app.  I guess they could find it if they just went to ebird to post their birds.

Why is a species that is said to be in South Africa in today's Cobird rare bird alert?
