Another Record Setting GBBC

Document Actions
Submitted by Rob Fergus. on 27-02-2008 15:24.

Last night around 11pm I watched the number of GBBC checklists submitted totals pass last year's record of just over 81,000 checklists.  With a couple more days to enter bird sightings, we've already set a new record for checklists submitted.

About the same time I also got a report of two White-tailed Ptarmigan seen during the GBBC at Vail Pass in Colorado.  That turned out to be species number 624 for the count, setting another new record for number of species seen on the GBBC.

Thanks to everyone who has participated so far, and congratulations on another record-setting GBBC!

Top Ten Locations Submitting Checklists

I think it is great that so many people participated. I wonder where Mentor, Ohio data has been? They were not even in the top ten for checklists submitted two days ago and now they are second. They may be first by tomorrow! I was wondering where they were after last year's numbers.

I love the work you folks are doing here. This is a great example of the how the internet can leverage the power of the masses to do some really great projects.
