10-42: Mapping California's Birds with Morgan Tingley and Sam Safran

Birders across the ABA Area are taking part in their state or province's Breeding Bird Atlas project, with 44 States and 8 provinces taking on the project to build a bigger and more precise look at where birds are. California is the latest, and the birdiest place to take it on so far, with an effort that started this year. Morgan Tingley and Sam Safran are part of the team that is organizing the project. They join me to talk about it. Also, 2026 was a banner year for Great Lakes Piping Plovers!
