Greetings, Nancy.



To add a little detail to Keith's reply, re your 1 km walk when you return by the same route: if you are still birding on the return journey, then you would report one km. distance (this is the length of trail covered), 60 minutes time, and all the birds found. You can think of it as reporting all the birds that you saw in that area, in the 60 minutes that you were birding there. But if you're not birding on the way back, just walking briskly and ignoring bird calls that you hear etc., then it's appropriate to report only the 30 minute outward trip on eBird.


I hope this helps.


cheers,
Susann Myers

I do a separate tally for the way back (another 1 km and 30min list) and usually only submit one. Is this correct when you are walking along a road or path one way and returning along the same route?
