Observation details
Continuing, young males beginning to develop gorgets and the species is also beginning to move locations in its winter habitat of residential gardens. These birds have wintered in Chatham County for the past 20 years. They are not rare! Perhaps someone in the eBird Data Collection Agency will realize this and tinker with your ossified algorithm to recognize this fact. I draw your attention to the number of reports you have received of RTHU, which represent only a portion of the wintering population here, and compare those numbers to Roseate Spoonbill reports, all two of them, a species you claim is to be expected here year round. They have only recently been observed here in January, and then in restricted locations. Duh.
