This seems like a really great, well-planned idea, and while I am not an eBird reviewer, I can sympathize with the annoying recording errors (I see them come up on the AZ listservs). <br /><br />I've always been a bit put off by the idea of county listing, in large part because the counties in Arizona are not so much geographically as politically and arbitrarily defined, which made the occurrence of birds in one county and not the other somewhat irrelevant. That being said, eastern counties are much smaller and more particular than those in Arizona. <br /><br />I'm looking forward ti updates from y'all County challenge. Good luck!Laurence Butlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14766876797454283812noreply@blogger.com
