GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Participants must be 2022 individual/family members of NYSOA, 2022 members of NYSOA member clubs/organizations, or 2022 youth members of the New York State Young Birders Club.

Only one report per form submission. Additional reporters must complete and submit their own forms, either online or via paper & USPS. Beyond the membership requirement, no attempt is made to verify, screen or otherwise edit any reports.

All reports are for individual Life Lists with the one exception of the individual New York State 2021 Year List.  (No club lists or other joint or communal reports, please.)

No reports submitted in previous years are automatically carried into the next published list.  If you want your numbers published, submit them on this form, even if they haven’t changed.

NEW FOR THE 2021 REPORTING YEAR:  NYS SELF-FOUND total for the year.
For rules, see https://punkbirder.webs.com/selffoundrules.htm

Pelagic Zone and Inland Bodies of Water

As of the 2015 reporting year, we are using the NYSARC/eBird/ABA NYS Pelagic Zone definition: Beginning 3 [statute] miles from shore and extending to the 200 nautical mile mark, with state boundary lines calculated using the NPoL/CPoL (Nearest/Closest Point of Land) method. PZ species should be included in your PZ, NYS, Region 10, AND Queens, Nassau, and/or Suffolk life totals. See nybirds.org/CountyLists/PelagicBoundaries.htm for details. Also please read the information on that page regarding inland bodies of water and associated county boundaries (they don't always fall in the middle of the body of water!).
Kingbird Regions
Boundaries of the ten KINGBIRD REGIONS: See http://nybirds.org/CountyLists/map-counties-kbregions.pdf.

Acceptable Species
DO NOT INCLUDE in your numbers any hybrids, subspecies, forms, released or escaped birds or any species not yet on the official Checklist of the Birds of New York State (2021 or 2022 ed.).  Just a few examples of birds not to be included in your reports are: Chukar, Great White Heron, Brewster’s Warbler, Oregon Junco.  In some cases, the bird may eventually be included in the Checklist; have patience.  You may, of course, keep anything you want on your personal lists, but for reporting here, please conform to the rules we ask everyone to follow.

Thresholds
For the NYS Life List, NYS Year List, and Regional List categories, there are minimum reporting thresholds, as indicated.  Reports below required thresholds will not be published. 
There are no thresholds for County Lists or for the [new in 2021] NYS Year Self-Found list, which includes only those birds you independently discovered in the state during the reporting year.
