This message has been approved by the Birdnews administrator. We pour more and more of our birding data into eBird , to keep our own records organized, to enjoy mildly competitive Big Days or Year Lists, to follow the arrivals and departures of birds in our own area, or across the province, or across the world. Increasingly, this eBird mega-database is becoming a fabulous tool for research and analysis of all aspects of birdlife worldwide. For many of us concerned about climate change, habitat destruction, and maintaining declining biodiversity, an overview of what is going on across our whole continent rather than just in our own backyard is becoming more and more important. A publication that offers just such an overview is North American Birds (NAB). Four times a year it provides in-depth analysis of trends in population numbers, migration patterns, and outstanding and unusual records across our North American continent. A major editorial feature, “The Changing Seasons”, is accompanied by articles on specific at-risk species, taxonomy changes and many other topics, followed by the main content of Regional Reports from every Province, Territory, and State in North America. NAB is now moving fast into online publication. In Ontario we are looking for birders with good computer skills and familiarity with eBird and other provincial online birding sites to serve as compilers of Ontario Regional Reports, using eBird and other available data. Being part of local or provincial birding networks would also be an asset. The Regional Reports come out once each season: spring, summer, fall, and winter and could be compiled either by an individual birder or by a small group, taking on a given season on a regular basis. This could be an interesting, worthwhile, and even addictive opportunity. Margaret Bain mjcbain@sympatico.ca
