In addition to project updates and Q&A, we’re excited to have Megan Jankowski (Review Coordinator, CBA) present a webinar on “ Finding Breeding Birds.” We’ve heard from many atlasers how different (in a good way) birding becomes when the focus shifts from “what species can I find?” to “what are these birds doing, and where are they nesting?” Megan is an exceptional nest-finder, and I’m looking forward to learning from her as well.
We’re also excited to share that, before the end of March, we surpassed *3,000* individual atlasers. For comparison, New York’s recent Breeding Bird Atlas (also run through an eBird project) took three years to reach that number. We reached it in under three months ! California’s birding community is incredible, and this is only the beginning.
