Sorry, Ohio! You need to select the referenced blog line as well as the
following un-high-lighted line to have the right URL. Weird, it did not work
that way on Michigan list.  - "Dr. Bob"

Subject: [Ohio-birds] Review of the new eBird from a "common man" and a
procrastinator

Birders:



Enamored!  I use this word for loving it - (not to confuse with my LOVE for
Judy).



I just put out a new blog to express my thoughts on the new eBird. I suspect
if this were a book, they would have sent me one, or certainly after this
review (Hey, whatcha got Cornell???), they would do so now. Always dreaming
.



I posted my comments (a "ramble") on my blog. Yes, I love it! And, yes, I
well remember making my New Year's resolution to keep up with recording my
daily records in eBird. You will see that I am behind - but not as much as
last year - from which I may never recover. I keep daily records, but
sometimes I lack impetus. The joy of activity in the present often overrides
the recording of memories from the past. (. and, you can quote me on this -
I actually think it is a great quote - I said it myself .)



I will do better this year. And, better yet, I have great new tool to make
data entry so much faster! I will be up to date after this weekend - he says
.



I give many well-deserved kudos to the eBird team! Thanks!!! I am enamored!



Check it out - I even dropped in screen pics:

"Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day."   Teaching a man to "bird"
is much harder!
