Taking the day off form birding after a long week and very long Friday, I
decided to update the RBA and had an idea while I was doing so. A lot of folks
see the reports of birds and hear about places like Lava Point, Lytle Ranch,
Willard Spur, the Wellsville's etc, and may not know where they are. And those
new to the state may be hearing about River Lane, East Canyon, Leidy Peak, etc
and like to know where they are. With boredom set in I started messing around
on google maps and created an RBA map, showing where in Utah the birds were
seen, and containing the same information shared on the RBA. I am going to add
a permalink to the RBA that goes to the map, and I have put a small version on
a page I created on my site to archive the RBA's as they are created. From the
archive page you can click on a link to go to the large page which has a list
of birds that cna be clicked on, bringing up the marker where the bird was seen

I hope this is helpful to some and I will tyr to keep it up-to-date.
