It's very simple: count everything you see, don't exclude any species from your checklist (including House Sparrows, Cowbirds, and Pigeons), and then submit your data. eBird sightings populate a database acecssible by birders (like in the sidebar), landmanagers (via the Avian Knowledge Network), and are used by Cornell to produce incredible analyses such as this one for Swainson's Hawk http://ebird.org/content/ebird/images/occurrence-maps/map01_large<br />Not only this, it is a free listing software to boot. <br /><br />CalebAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
