210 in 2010: eBird Idaho - Week 13


For those of you checking into the Idaho Birding Blog for the first time, I am hosting a little competition to see who can be the first eBirder in Idaho to see "two-ten in twenty-ten", that is 210 species of birds this year!  A second part of the competition is to see who can submit the most checklists to eBird by the 210th day of the year (July 29th).  Here are the rules of the game. The eBird team and KAYTEE have been very supportive of this effort to encourage birders to be eBirders and are donating $210 worth of cash or prizes to the winners!  So far, we have quadrupled the number of Idaho checklists submitted to eBird.

Here is the current leader board...(names that are hyperlinked have been featured on my weekly blog segment the Idaho Birder Profile)
