In preparing for Christmas Bird Counts around the state, it would be helpful to have detailed maps for counters. Traditional methods of map preparation involve drawing circles on copies of DeLorme atlas pages and delineating boundaries by hand with z Sharpie. Does anyone know of a more technologically sophisticated, 21st century way to create such maps, perhaps using Google Earth, Mapquest, or something similar? The main goal would be to clearly mark count circles in a printable format; marking regions within the circles is secondary. Finding a map isn't too hard; marking the count circle is the challenge. Please reply off-list, as this probably is not an appropriate topic for extended list discussion.
