Hi, It's confusing, but try this:
In ebird.org, go to Explore, then click Species Maps, enter the name of species, then under Date, alter the search parameter to Current Year, and specify Dec-Feb, while leaving the Location blank, and you get: https://ebird.org/map/rewbla?neg=true&env.minX=-92.18373095229242&env.minY=46.82355476736932&env.maxX=-80.96668993666742&env.maxY=51.81625450816151&zh=true&gp=false&ev=Z&mr=12-2&bmo=12&emo=2&yr=cur&byr=2019&eyr=2019 Then, zoom in to upstate NY on the North American map. Then you see a few fresh hits around upstate New York, for Red-Winged Blackbird, during the first few days of december: A few around Rochester, around Ithaca, and so on. It's fun to play with this toy... --yrs. Magnus Fiskesjö, PhD Associate Professor, Department of Anthropology, Cornell University McGraw Hall, Room 201.

The usual crew was there, including a RED-WINGED BLACKBIRD. I tried to manipulate eBird to tell me the most recent sightings in this area, and I couldn’t figure it out. I know it’s not unusual to see RWBBs at Montezuma but I was surprised to see one now. I thought that had all left us for warmer climes! I also saw one of “our” resident adult bald eagles soaring high over the grassland to our north. eBird checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S62111152 -- Alyssa Johnson Environmental Educator 315.365.3588 Montezuma Audubon Center 2295 State Route 89 P.O.
