Additional Atlas Efforts
In an effort to make the RIBA2.0 the most comprehensive bird atlas to date, we are doing everything we can to sample those avian taxa typically under-sampled in a traditional atlas. During the breeding season, we are extending our efforts to sample nocturnal species throughout the state.
