The reasons I primarily use Facebook are... I do not have a smartphone I can log into one site and check on birds, horses, friends, news with one user/name login Logging in to the listserv just to post can be a pain I still find Ebird overwhelming _kimba j summit ________________________________ From: Manon Van Schoyck <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Thursday, February 20, 2014 11:13 AM Subject: Re: [Ohio-birds] NORTHERN SHRIKE - The Wilds I agree. I do not use ebird currently but may in the future. And along this thread though I am on a couple of the "bird" Facebook pages, this list is my primary source of bird reports. -----Original Message----- From: Ohio birds [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Robert Evans Sent: Thursday, February 20, 2014 10:23 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [Ohio-birds] NORTHERN SHRIKE - The Wilds This current post about the northern shrike near the Wilds is a good case in point regarding the current discussion for the need for cross-posting on various lists. Telling us that the bird is in the same location as was posted previously on ebird does little good to those of us who do not use ebird. I do not oppose the use of ebird, but I do not personally use it, preferring to live in the world of paragraphs, descriptions, and complete thoughts. Now, with that in mind, how far this bird was seen from an intersection might be more useful. If not available, knowing that it is on Coal Run Road will probably suffice. Many thanks to Anthony for reporting in a timely manner from the field. Nice bird!
