First of all, I wanted to thank all the people who sent me suggestions for getting more out of eBird. I thought the Ohio Bird Hotspots website was perfect for seeing what other birders are seeing and posting to eBird. And, after doing a lot of searching online, I really appreciate having access to this page: http://ohioebirdhotspots.wikispaces.com/Birding+in+Ohio I also wanted to pass along another site I found just by searching around. It doesn't have a map or list of counties. But, it could help you if you are traveling to another state: http://birdingwashington.info/dashboard/ I think I read somewhere that the person who developed this page is still working on it. It is a first release. I found this second site because a person who regularly posts to this page is traveling. He was relying on the Hot Spots maps to find good birding areas in a state in the Pacific Northwest. I sent him the link to this second site. Maybe someone else can post some more suggestions for helping birders who are traveling to find good birding areas. I know if I had the chance to travel to the Bay Area I would contact some of the Flickr Contact I have out there who mainly shoot birds. Finally, I wanted to let everyone here from NE Ohio know that the Cuyahoga Libraries have five copies of the new Warbler Guide. The Akron Library doesn't appear to have it yet. (Maybe we need to put in some requests for them to get it.) http://encore.cuyahoga.lib.oh.us/iii/encore/record/C__Rb11067695__Swarbler%20guide__Orightresult__X5?lang=eng&suite=cobalt The Cuyahoga County Library has one copy of the older Peterson Field Guide to Warblers, which I am holding in my hand right now. It is pretty good. I wish I had it a couple of weeks ago when I was out looking for fall warblers. It has some wonderful plates with variations on the birds and one plate on undertail patterns. Some plates have up to 12 images of one species. Ken ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
