Actually, it's not regular maintenance. Cornell University is having server
issues. Here's the official word from eBird project leader Marshall Iliff.

eBird editors,
eBird has been down this morning (still true as of 10am EST) due to
unexpected server issues on the Cornell University campus. There is no
reason for alarm (all the data are safe) but if you are having trouble
submitting or accessing Explore Data or the Review Tools, this is a known
issues that multiple teams at the Lab and University are working on.
Issues like this are incredibly rare and our team manages to keep eBird up
and running something like 99.99% of the time. But as with all technology,
issues sometimes arise and need to be fixed.
If you are using eBird Mobile, you can wait to submit your lists until
eBird is back up again. Use "offline checklist" to grab your new location
and start a checklist if you are lucky enough to be out in the field this
morning:

Just wanted to make sure everyone knew what was going on. We'll post again
here when things are back up and running.
Best,
Marshall Iliff
eBird Project Leader
