Fellow birders,
Now that the Winter Season is over (December - February), as The Chat's Briefs for the Files editor, I would like to hear from any of you who have not posted important records for the season already on eBird. The great majority of the Briefs over the past decade have come from the editor perusing the eBird database, species by species, and picking out the most signficant reports. This is tedious, but I need to wait for a few more days to start so that any and all rarity sightings (as seen on the Carolina Bird Club Sightings page) have hopefully been approved as valid. But, a few of you might have some important records that were not on eBird, so please let me know what notable birds you saw.
In addition, some of you might wish to comment on the season in regard to the winter finch situation in your area, overall weather trends, etc.
I'd like to hear from folks by March 20. Again, almost all of you submit eBird reports, so those data are already available to me. Thanks for posting such records!
