Subject: [SanDiegoRegionBirding] Hotspots for eBird bar charts August 15 - 21
Greetings,

As of the past week, two more hotspots now have complete bar charts!

Next week we have the opportunity to complete three more. Unfortunately,
these are all inland.

As the heat warnings continue into next week, I will continue to omit
desert hotspots from the list. Please note that the inland hotspots
retained on the list will also be extremely hot!

Special note on Agua Caliente - it also only needs this coming week for bar
chart completion, but I am omitting it from the list as the park is closed
Memorial Day through Labor Day, and the temperatures will be extremely
high. I have never been there and do not know whether it is birdable while
the park itself is closed - I am guessing it is NOT. But leaving a note
here in case someone reading this can safely and legally access it.

If you're just joining us, see this message for an explanation of these
weekly hotspot lists:

The monthly meetings of San Diego Field Ornithologists (SDFO) are currently virtual, open only to members, at 6pm on the third Tuesday of every month.

Two notable on-line resources are available for San Diego birders: the San Diego County Bird Atlas by Phil Unitt (2004) - http://sdplantatlas.org/BirdAtlas/BirdPages.aspx ; and an update of notable records for San Diego County (2002–present), compiled by Paul Lehman - https://sandiegofieldornithologists.org/san-diego-county-avian-records-database/.
