Hi all,

This is just a reminder that I'm maintaining maps to follow the movement of selected irruptive species on rarebird.ord. See below for more details.

Only 22 counties (out of 88) remain that still hasn't reported Red-breasted Nuthatch. It would be a safe bet that all counties have had hoards of them by now but these remaining counties lack coverage. Pine Siskins have been the main theme over the past week or so and continue to be. 

I'd like to encourage everyone to PLEASE use eBird on reporting winter irruptives - your data is invaluable to our understanding of winter irruptive. It also really helps me keep track of numbers.

Hi all,

This will be the 6th winter that I maintain maps to follow the movement of selected irruptive species on rarebird.org. If you haven’t seen previous years, check out -

2007-2008 - http://rarebird.org/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2615&title=common-redpoll-county-map (Common Redpoll only)

2011-2012 - http://rarebird.org/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6176&title=winter-bird-movement-maps-11-12

Please let me know if you have any counties to add and if you can, include high counts as well. Red and White-winged Crossbills, Common and Hoary Redpolls, Pine Siskin and Evening Grosbeak maps will be high counts for each county. The Snowy Owl map will be total individuals and the Northern Shrike map will just be filled in if present.
 The maps will be updated as the reports come in.

With the invasion of Red-breasted Nuthatches this winter, I will now include a map for these too.

Please consider submitting your sightings to eBird as well. Although my maps are detailed, they are simply created for viewing, not data - that's what eBird is for.

Thanks,
