I=92ll post this first message to NS-RBA and NatureNS but for the rest of t=
he season I will only post updates to NatureNS
The Winter Bird List (WBL) starts tomorrow and continues until the end of D=
ecember where we see how many different species we can collectively tick fo=
r Nova Scotia during that period . I=92ll be tracking the progress of the b=
irds reported to eBird, NS-RBA, NatureNS and will rely on others to keep me=
updated about any personal sightings or Facebook exclusives.
Once again Peter Brannon has generously agreed to handle our website updat=
es. For anyone looking to see the finest of bird photography, check out Pet=
er=92s Flickr page. Peter primary posts Florida birds but he has some Nova =
Scotia birds posted in his albums as well. I don=92t know the Flickr stats =
on this but there probably now many photographers on Flickr that get their =
pics promoted to Flickr=92s Explorer page as much as Peter.

We had a good year last year when we ticked 204 species which was eight mor=
e than our average of 196. Our Depth of Winter List (DOWL) runs concurrentl=
y with the last month of the WBL where we track February only species. Last=
year we had 150 which was 2 beyond our average of 148 species.
Winter Bird List (WBL) runs from Dec 1 =96 to Feb 29
Depot of Winter List (DOWL) runs from Feb 28
We were hoping to update the gaudy colours of WBL spreadsheet but it is not=
done yet. We may start out with the old spreadsheet and switch to a more p=
leasing one soon.
For more info and history or to download the full spreadsheet , visit our W=
inter Bird List page at the Nova Scotia Bird Society website.
