Howdy TN birders,

Earlier this year, eBird expanded its scope to include the entire  
planet.  It now accept submissions of birds found anywhere on Earth.   
This of course created a huge need for regional editors to review the  
records, manage the data entry checklists, etc. for every corner of  
every continent.

So, to the point:  I know there are quite a few good birders in  
Tennessee who have international birding experience.  If you happen  
to have a particular knowledge of the birds of some foreign lands and  
might be interested in helping out, let me know.  What is needed is a  
general sense of what is normal vs. unusual where and when, and an  
understanding of the ID challenges.  The Americas and much of Europe  
are pretty well covered, but vast expanses of the rest of the planet  
are still the lawless frontier.

Thanks --

Bill Pulliam
