A couple years ago I came across this blog entry which showed you how to map out your eBird data. It was fun to play with at the time and I had it filed away in the back of my mind.
My favorite is the pelagic trips and how they make lines out into the ocean. Clearly I live in Southern Maine as that is were most of my birding happens. I also like the map where I add my 5-Mile Radius Patch area, because that does give me a better sense of it.
Just for the reference the colors are broken down as follows and each represents the first year that I submitted an eBird checklist for that area.
pre-2012 – grey
2013 – white
2014 – brown
2015 – blue
2016 – green
2017 – yellow
2018 – red
