Birds

Scythebill Software

I've developed a free, open-source project for tracking birder's lists. It's called Scythebill, and has quite a few loyal users.

Old links

• Madagascar, 2000: lots of birds and lemurs!
• Kenya, June '99: a few photos, some of the highlights, and a brief itinerary for a trip
• Other bird photos: photos and video grabs of San Mateo County rarities, and from some of my other trips

Northern California BirdBox

I transcribed the BirdBox from the fall of 1994 until the summer of 2000. That's a lot of raw text - wouldn't it be nice to try doing something, however useless, with it all?

• Check out fall vagrant totals from Northern California, 1994-99. (Updated Dec.2, '99)
• Or see who was contributing to the BirdBox back in the 90s.

To report a sighting, you'll have to phone into the BirdBox at (415)-681-7422. Don't know how many loons have been seen in California? Visit the California Bird Records Committee and find out.
