  Hi Sue=20
  How did this turn out? Were there many people and did you find a good =
shorebird locations?  I notice you say willing to share sightings on =
Ebird. Is this the same as the Shorebird surveys that require a separate =
report?  I always submit my Pictou Co data on ebird but wondered if =
anyone  other than Susann Myers was looking at the results since they =
were not in the shorebird  monitoring format.  I find it hard to go =
somewhere and survey shorebirds and not other species as well. My ebird =
reports like Big I. Waterside and  Powell Pt Park, Middle River Dyke =
etc. usually cover all birds seen.=20
  Here is yesterday at Big I.=20

  cheers
  ken
