I go out most every day of the year and do the best that I can to list the birds that I see hear. I try my best to get photographs and sound recordings for documentation. I am an average birder and photographer however I am continually learning as I go. I make plenty of mistakes and when I get a correction from an eBird reviewer I quickly correct the list in question and thank the reviewer for the heads up. Many reviewers from around the world are nice enough to point out why my observation is wrong. I never get anything from the reviewers in Colorado. Some of my sightings never get posted to eBird and I am very frustrated about that. If I list something and it is incorrect, it just gets ignored and I never know why. If I get the sighting wrong, please let me know. I see many rare observations listed that have NO documentation at all and yet they are listed. I feel that eBird doesn’t care or appreciate my contributions. I just want credit where credit is due, and I want my photos and audios to go into the Macaulay Library so they can be used.
