Report Your Observations
Reporting what you see in the field is important not only to RBA members but the entire birding community. If you need assistance reporting your observations, please contact the Statistics Committee for help. The primary contact is the Statistics Chair, Dave Tetlow.

We use several methods for reporting sightings:
  • input your data into eBird
  • post an email message on a listserver
  • send via email a copy of your checklist* to Dave Tetlow
  • send via US Mail a copy of your checklist* to Dave Tetlow at 79 Hogan Point Rd., Hilton, NY 14468
  • Hotlines
    * if you need a form, please visit our Downloadable Checklists & Forms page link listed to the left

    If you want your sightings included in the newsletter noteworthy records section, you must submit them directly to Dave or enter them in eBird.
