For anyone still curious (as I was) about whether Tony might just possibly have been wrong given that another eBird reviewer called this a COHA... this observation has now been confirmed as a SSHA.

Sorry I haven't been around much y'all! Just wanted to hop on and invite you all to join my new "Whatbirders of iNat" project on iNaturalist. No particular purpose, just thought it would be nice to keep track of each other on that platform.

Not my photo, but I saw it and remembered this great thread. It's a little hard to tell from the photo, but I'm pretty sure the bird is levitating up and to the right in this case:

There are! But the only people who can post to a personal location are the owner and anyone they've shared a checklist from that location with. Only the owner can edit them. Hotspots are available to anyone and are managed by eBird volunteers (2 per county plus some high up folks). As of about a year ago you can't change the name assigned to a Hotspot on your checklists.
Thought I would hop on here and post this link again: https://support.ebird.org/en/support/solutions/articles/48001064392-rating-media#RatingPhotos
Great to review from time to time!
Aw, rum luck! Somebody on here needs to get it.
Speaking of which, if anyone wants to be in the ME, MA, or Steller's Sea-Eagle GroupMe's who isn't, shoot me a message.
