I know e-bird is a valuable resource, and the data received can be helpful to both professional as well as amateur ornithologists. That being said, it is a poor place to only put records there, of uncommon to rare species that others might want to try and relocate. In Middle Tennesse, there is also a thread on Facebook that many people are using to report sightings. Could everyone please put anything of significance on Tn-bird, and post anything you like on these other sites, that are not designed to share info on short notice. This note was precipitated by the news that I drove right by Hatchie NWR on Sunday, only to find out later in the day that 2 Tricolored Herons were seen there the day before, and posted on e-bird Aargh Cheers Terry Witt Murfreesboro Tn
