Dear North American Birds Contributors,

Please send your noteworthy records from the Middle Pacific Coast Region for
the period 1 Aug - 30 Nov to the appropriate Subregional Editors (see below) or
to the Regional Editors by 10 Nov. 

Please pay special attention to the format example given at the end of this
message. Reports that are formatted properly make our job far easier. In
particular, it is important to note that there is a single tab between species,
date, etc.

PLEASE use Subregional Editors for the counties that have them.  These SREs
painstakingly keep track of records within their counties and are in most cases
THE source of information on the birds of their counties.  By sending your
records to the SREs, you are helping to contribute to their county files as well
as to North American Birds.  If you wish to send copies to the Regional
Editors, we welcome them, but please send records through the SREs as well.  If you
have a noteworthy winter sighting from a county without a Subregional Editor,
please send records to the Regional Editors below.

We currently have no regional editors for Fresno, Madera, Marin, Mariposa and
Tulare Counties.  Records from these counties should be sent directly to the
Regional Editors.




The Reporting Deadlines are:
                    Spring      Summer      Fall       Winter

Season ends         May 31      July 31     Nov 30     Feb 28

Observer reports to Subregional Editors (SREs)
                    June 10     Aug 10      Dec 10     Mar 10

Observer reports to Regional Editors (if not sent to SRE)
                    June 10     Aug 10      Dec 10     Mar 10

SRE reports to Regional Editors
                    June 20     Aug 20      Dec 20     Mar 20

Regional Editors final text to ABA office
                    July 10     Sep 10       Jan 10      Apr 10

PLEASE meet your deadlines so that we can meet our deadlines!


Please send reports in our preferred order: species, date(s) [including
year], locale, co. abbrev., number of birds, and observer, and then, on a second
line, any comments.  Please separate these sections by a "tab" (except just a
space between locale and county abbreviation) on electronic versions submitted. 
Again, here's an example of the correct format:

Grace's Warbler 12/13/98-2/20/99    Jacks Peak MTY      1   RFT, mob
   A second record for the Region (the first was 6/26/91 at Deer Spring,
Glass Mt. MNO) which wintered with a large flock of Townsend's & Hermit warblers
at the very top of Jacks Peak in Jacks Peak Regional Park. Details by Tintle
and others are enclosed.


Many observers and Subregional Editors have been submitting their reports
electronically, either on a diskette or by e-mail.  PLEASE submit electronic
reports if possible.  We are trying to maintain an electronic database of at least
recent records, and we hope to be able to have all old data entered
eventually so that the entire database will be easily accessible to anyone who wants
it.  Electronic submission of records in the format described above makes it
much easier for us maintain this electronic database.

We've heard questions about, comments on, and criticism of our regional
reports from several observers and SREs.  We really appreciate this feedback, as it
helps us to better represent what is going on in the Region as a whole. 
Please help us correct any factual errors we make, and don't hesitate to let us
know what you think of the reports.

Many thanks to all the contributors and Subregional Editors who make these
reports possible!

Sincerely,


Luke Cole, Mike Rogers, Scott Terrill, Tom Ryan, and Steve Glover

(Middle Pacific Coast Regional Editors)
