Just wondering if this showed up on anybody else's Ebird rare bird alert on March 16th.
A guy named Nathan Miller saw 379 species of bird in the same spot at 1:01.
He posted seeing so many birds never seen in Ontario and birds I've never even heard of before.
He now has seen the most birds in Ontario in 2 checklists.
Is he a spammer,just made a mistake or someone hacked into his account?

Most likely someone trying to import his life list without putting in proper locations or observation dates. I couldn't find any of his observations so maybe they have been removed from public viewing now. He's still on top of the Top 100 in Ontario though.

The top one in York region all time is a similar case, with 228 species in 2 checklist.
