Date: 1/31/26 7:53 pm From: Cynthia Ehlinger via CTBirds <ctbirds...> Subject: [CT Birds] Big January manual submissions due 2/2
Thank you to all who participated in the BIG JANUARY event for COA.
Remember: If you use eBird to submit all of your observations, there is no need to supply them directly to us unless you want to manually report your count for a single city/town. Our Big January team will pull the data from eBird.
Please email <coa-info...> to let us know if you are in one of the youth categories. If you do not use eBird, please keep a record of where and when you first observed each species throughout the month and forward the total results to our team at <coa-info...> Please note, the deadline for manual reports is February 2, 2026.
All those who reached 100 species or more will be emailed a commemorative certificate. The individuals with the highest count in the state, per county and in one location will also win a prize.
Congratulations to all who got out and contributed to this documentation of winter bird life in Connecticut.
Good Birding!
Cynthia S Ehlinger President, Connecticut Ornithological Association Riverside
