Hi Larry and NBBers,
This is just a plug to use gps coordinates when possible to describe the location of a bird (in eBird reports as well). Cardinal directions and general terminology can be confusing. When highlighting directions, what is crystal clear to one person may be disorienting or downright perplexing to someone else. Gps coordinates provide clarity (assuming they are plotted correctly ;-).
If this bird is at/near the same location as the one last year, it's approximately here: (38.0660743, -122.8089937).
