--f46d04218783becac304d8598a6b Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 hi folks, I'll have more to pass along about this soon(...), but if you're interested in an estimate of how our migrants are doing on their journeys this spring check out the monthly eBird maps. (Bear in mind that these maps show the distribution of reports which might differ somewhat from the true distribution for a number of reasons). (If you would rather not use the links below, see instructions at end of the email) *Red-winged Blackbird reports in Feb*: (if you compare to Jan, note that some of the surge in Feb is probably caused by the Great Backyard Bird Count) http://ebird.org/ebird/map/rewbla?neg=true&env.minX=-78.24548592500003&env.minY=41.76117875680187&env.maxX=-59.788454675000025&env.maxY=48.5585296128654&zh=true&gp=true&mr=on&bmo=2&emo=2&yr=2013-2013&byr=2013&eyr=2013 *Red-winged Blackbird reports in Mar*: http://ebird.org/ebird/map/rewbla?neg=true&env.minX=-78.24548592500003&env.minY=41.76117875680187&env.maxX=-59.788454675000025&env.maxY=48.5585296128654&zh=true&gp=true&mr=on&bmo=3&emo=3&yr=2013-2013&byr=2013&eyr=2013 *Common Grackle in Feb:* http://ebird.org/ebird/map/comgra?neg=true&env.minX=25.652859374509035&env.minY=-27.31796400180449&env.maxX=30.267117187009035&env.maxY=-25.15261029211526&zh=true&gp=true&mr=on&bmo=2&emo=2&yr=2013-2013&byr=2013&eyr=2013 *Common Grackle in Mar: * http://ebird.org/ebird/map/comgra?neg=true&env.minX=-78.23999276093753&env.minY=41.744786656395256&env.maxX=-59.782961510937525&env.maxY=48.54398481842973&zh=true&gp=true&mr=on&bmo=3&emo=3&yr=2013-2013&byr=2013&eyr=2013 If there are too many points at that map scale the application will show squares instead of flags. If you zoom in it will show flags, and sometimes if you zoom back again to the previous scale it will continue to show flags. *To do this without using the links above: * * * 1. go to the eBird site web app (explore data, Range and point Maps) 2. set the species 3. for date set 'current year' and in choose 'feb' to 'feb' or 'mar' to 'mar' etc. 4. For a good scale for seeing the Atlantic movements, set the location to 'maine, usa' 5. on the menu on the right side, choose 'show points sooner'. If there are too many points at that map scale the application will show squares instead of flags. cheers, James. -- James Churchill Kentville, Nova Scotia Email: jameslchurchill@gmail.com Phone (h): (902) 681-2374 --f46d04218783becac304d8598a6b Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr">hi folks,=A0<div><br><div>I'll have more to pass along= about this soon(...), but if you're interested in an estimate of how o= ur migrants are doing on their journeys this spring check out the monthly e= Bird maps.
