OK eBird data is only transferred to the Atlas quarterly but that won't make much difference to the scientific use of the data
I encourage people to use eBird because it helps the general public. I believe the data is also transferred to the Victorian Biodiversity Atlas but have not yet got that officially confirmed. Michael Norris
