ES Birders,
Just thought I'd pass along a summary of the first month of California's
first Breeding Bird Atlas effort. There's good help documentation available
through California Bird Atlas listed below here if anyone is interested in
helping support this effort with your birding!

Birders,
We’ve been blown away by the early engagement in support of California’s
first statewide Breeding Bird Atlas. As of this writing, 20,850 Atlas
checklists have been submitted across 2,864 blocks in 57 counties by 1,491
contributors. In January alone, 59 species have already received Confirmed
breeding codes.
We’ve also been building a statewide network of Regional Coordinators and
data reviewers to help oversee the effort. If you’re interested in joining
the team, reach out to me directly at <van...>
This first-ever statewide Atlas is being coordinated by California Bird
Atlas <https://www.californiabirdatlas.org/> (CBA), an independent
nonprofit.
If you’re able, please consider making a donation
<https://donorbox.org/california-bird-atlas>. Your support directly funds
the infrastructure and scientific coordination needed to sustain this
statewide effort. Thank you for helping build it.
Happy Atlasing,
Van Pierszalowski
Executive Director, California Bird Atlas (CBA)
