I think eBird just found a new poster child (Liron - I use that term loosely. Looks like you have more maturity than alot of adults I know).

As Canada's population becomes increasingly urban and disinterested in wildlife, wild spaces and their conservation, its imperative that we educate & engage our youth in these issues. They are the next generation of conservation advocates & scientists who are the hope of our remaining wild spaces.

My hat is off to Liron's parents & role models. And to Liron too. :D

It's great that eBird's 100 millionth record came from a fellow young birder! Glad you saw the robin!

Congratulations, Liron...and thank you for your info on George C. Reifel. You're an inspiration to this amateur birder/photographer.
