Hi All,

I have an invite in my mailbox this morning from "Rebecca" to join the cob...@groups.io Group

A quick search asking about groups.io shows it's a platform launched in 2014 and has received good reviews.

Did anyone else get this invite?  Are we moving to a new platform?  Or is this just another platform that is being tried out?

I'm not entirely sure if this is a legitimate invite.

I would appreciate any info.

Thanks,
Ann Donoghue

Hi Ann,

I received that same email this morning, although you should note that the group referred to is actually cobirders@groups.io, NOT cobirds.

"CoBirders" is not, I repeat, NOT the same group as "CoBirds". It is not a Colorado Field Ornithologists-related group whatsoever.

I'll just leave it at that, for the sake of brevity and decorum.

Eric

Check into it and see if the birding group works for you. Join or not. Its your choice .
Both birding groups have there good and bad images. And Eric is right its NOT cobirds.
Just my 2 cents .
