To that end, I=E2=80=99m re-immersing myself in t= he hobby after
back-burnering it for many years.=C2=A0 I am se= eking advice on record
keeping.

I have invested in a= nice scope, own binocs, and have bird books that were
new in the late 1960= =E2=80=99s (my early inspiration)=E2=80=A6I even have
a3x5 card file with = my life list in it=E2=80=A6My handwriting
hasn=E2=80=99t improved much sinc= e grade school!

With the Wisbirdn resource, I know w= here to go birding=C2=A0but
I=E2=80=99mat a loss for what resource to use = to record my
sightings.=C2=A0I=E2=80=99m eager to archive my = life list, but I also want
to start yearly lists and some of the other list= s I=E2=80=99ve seen people
use.



Is there= a list-keeping product out there that uploads to a server to keep
