Most days I take 15 minutes or so to browse through bird list-serves in
other states, mostly close-by. I go to what was once called Jack Siler's
Site, since acquired and gussied up with ads by the Am. Birding Ass'n,
at http://birding.aba.org/ . I look for the names of well-informed
writers, or of course for the occasional lurid title. When--heaven
forbid!--the Ohio list grows dull or repetitive, it's an opportunity to
learn about birds, or, occasionally, birders. Here's a sample from this
morning:
The Connecticut list has an old favorite
http://www.lifebuzz.co/they-went-for-a-canoe-ride-to-the-island-what-they-saw-on-the-way-back-was-unimaginable/
From the NJ list come some grumpy but often on-target remarks on local
birders:

An interesting thread from Arkansas, where they have a very improbable
northern waterthrush, and some thoughtful and knowledgeable
discussion:
