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. > > If you haven’t joined the Atlas project yet, do so [here](https://ebird.org/atlascalifornia/home). > > If you missed last month's Town Hall, it’s available on our YouTube channel [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCfPiGkkknQ). > > Happy Atlasing, > Van Pierszalowski > Executive Director > [California Bird Atlas](https://www.californiabirdatlas.org/) > > Los Angeles, CA > >
