The Northern California BirdBox is a telephone voice-mail system where you can leave rare-bird reports or listen to reports left by others. To report or to listen, call (415) 681-7422. Volunteers perform the heroic task of transcribing these reports and sending them out on the e-mail list BirdWest. With Adam Winer's permission, I have extracted here the East Bay parts of the reports (with some editing). BirdWest includes similar Rare Bird Alert summaries from all over the western states. You can read the archive at
or you can find instructions on how to subscribe to the list at
The latter site also includes information about RBA lists from other areas of North America.
