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
