Virginia Birders,
Please mark your calendars for the second Rusty Blackbird Winter Blitz, a
citizen-science effort to document locations of this rapidly declining
species
across its wintering range. The Blitz will take place Jan 30-Feb 15, 2010.
During this time volunteers will search for Rusty Blackbirds in likely
habitats across Virginia and enter these observations into VA eBird. These
observations are critical in identifying both local areas of concentration
and
areas that are not used, and in evaluating the stability of these locations
over time.

This project of the Smithsonian¹s International Rusty Blackbird Technical
Working Group is being brought to you here in Virginia by the Virginia
Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, the Virginia Society of Ornithology
and the Coastal Virginia Wildlife Observatory. You can find more information
on the Blitz and on the status, distribution and ecology of the Rusty
Blackbird in Virginia at http://www.vabci.org/rusty-blackbird.asp
<http://www.vabci.org/rusty-blackbird.asp> . Feel free to contact me, the
Blitz coordinator for VA, with any questions at
