Several new eBird shared bird reporting hot spots have been added in recent days. Delaware County Char-Mar Ridge Preserve http://ohioebirdhotspots.wikispaces.com/Char-Mar+Ridge+Preserve Franklin County Haul Road Quarries http://ohioebirdhotspots.wikispaces.com/Haul+Road+Quarries Pickaway County Deer Creek Wildlife Area--Middle Wetland http://ohioebirdhotspots.wikispaces.com/Deer+Creek+Wildlife+Area Deer Creek Lake--Marina and Boat Launch http://ohioebirdhotspots.wikispaces.com/Deer+Creek+State+Park I have also updated the Ohio eBird Hot Spot web site so that information from the new eBird Hot Spot Explorer (http://ebird.org/ebird/hotspots) is linked to each hot spot on the web site. On each location page the link above the GPS coordinates for takes you to the Hot Spot Explorer page for that hot spot. If you have an eBird account you can now submit a checklist from Hot Spot Explorer. I appreciate all the help I have gotten from birders across Ohio with managing the eBird hot spots in Ohio.
