--Apple-Mail-393--384568982 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Actually, Marg and others, we are trying not to use "Count Period" any more -- this is now an ancient expression, and refers really to Dec. 15 to Jan. 4 (the possible period for all Xmas Counts) -- but COUNT WEEK is what James was referring to, meaning 3 days before your particular count plus 3 days after your count -- e.g. for the Wolfville Count that was on Dec. 14, our Count Week was from Dec. 11 to Dec. 17 -- and, as James said, Count Week species are those seen during CW but not on Count Day, for whatever particular count. Cheers from Jim in Wolfville Begin forwarded message: > From: James Hirtle <jrhbirder@hotmail.com> > Date: December 26, 2013 3:37:46 PM AST > To: Naturens Naturens <naturens@chebucto.ns.ca> > Subject: RE: [NatureNS] Late count birds > Reply-To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca > > If a species has been seen three days before the count or three > days after and not seen on the count day, it gets included as in > the count period. > > Sincerely, > > James > > > From: mmillard@eastlink.ca > To: naturens@chebucto.ns.ca > Subject: Re: [NatureNS] Late count birds > Date: Thu, 26 Dec 2013 09:37:16 -0400 > > I have a question about doing the counts.
