WildBird on the Fly is reporting that a new online birding game is available. A webcam has been set up in the backyard of Craig Newmark (founder of Craig's list) to try and snap shots of birds that are visiting. Players vie for spots on the top watchers' list by photographing and classifying the most birds. They snap stills of avian targets from the video stream, and the shots are dumped into a database for classification.

The game is supposed to be up at CONE Sutro Forest sometime today.
