Bird Atlas 2007-11



Having done my final BBS visit, my thoughts are now turning towards the forthcoming Bird Atlas. There are a few questions for me to think about to get the coverage needed but I am already taking names for people wishing to take part. There are two main methods: Timed Tetrad Visits and Roving Recorders. TTV needs a level of commitment but Roving Recorders can be done on a more casual basis, although I will be targetting these as well to cover all 10km squares. Data will also be collected from other surveys, such as the BBS, and from BirdTrack.

Have a look at the website www.birdatlas.net for more information about methodology. Contact me if you wish to put your name down as a volunteer for the York Region.
