Question: Is there a time limit on submitting lists to eBird so they count towards Global Bird Weekend?
Answer: Ideally, submit your list on Saturday 8 May - Global Big Day! - eBird can then produce a real time daily total and give information about how many people are out listing for the event as it happens! You can watch the lists roll in on eBird’s Global Big Day page. The number of species submitted will be updated every few minutes throughout the day.

EBIRD TEAM ACCOUNT
Have you managed to set up your eBird Team account? There are instructions for this on our website https://globalbirding.org/ebird-team-information
Hopefully we can answer a couple of questions about this here:
Question: Does EVERYONE on the team have to submit their own individual list to eBird as well as the complete group or team list?
Answer: Ideally, YES! Once everyone has got their own lists, then each team member submits their lists individually AND then shares their lists to their Team Leader who submits the complete Team List to eBird.
If someone on your team doesn’t have eBird or the suitable equipment to upload their lists, then they can communicate what they have seen to their Team Leader who can add their sightings manually on the Team Leader eBird account.
Question: Is there a time limit on submitting lists to eBird so they count towards Global Big Day?
Answer: Ideally, submit your lists on Saturday 8 May! - eBird can then produce a real time daily rolling total of species recorded and show how many people are out listing for the event as it happens! You can watch the lists roll in on eBird’s Global Big Day page. The number of species submitted will be updated every few minutes throughout the day.
ABOVE ALL HAVE A GREAT FUN GLOBAL BIG DAY!!!
