Welcome! The Birds forum is intended as a supplement to
Carolinabirds. This forum is a place for backyard birders and beginners to chat without getting swamped by email, not a place to report notable sightings. Avid birders will want to subscribe to Carolinabirds. This forum might also be a good place for chat about hunting, cats, and other topics discouraged on Carolinabirds. Please try to be nice and remember to include your location (city and state) when you're talking about specific bird sightings.
For information about how to join Carolinabirds, the email group for birds and birding in the Carolinas, please see
http://www.duke.edu/~cwcook/cbirds.html. You can view recent Carolinabirds messages at
Birding on the net and
Surfbirds. For the full archive of messages, see the
Carolinabirds Archive.
If you would like a forum to talk about birds outside the Carolinas, please see
BirdForum. BirdForum also has boards for both Carolinas, but there's not a lot of traffic there.
