I'd also like to add that eBird data is used by literally thousands of scientists across the globe who are doing vital monitoring and conservation work on birds and bird-adjacent species. It is 100% worth contributing to for that reason alone. Cheers, man!
Sounds like a very solid plan. I spent good amount of time entering my historical checklists into eBird, and then I did the same for my dad and grandparents. It was rewarding, it provided valuable historical data, and it was fun (though at times tedious 😅). Good luck and I’m happy to answer any questions!

Thanks Nathaniel, I appreciate it.
I've always wondered how you created a life list for birds you have seen in the past but not entered. I'm going to have to do this.
Cool … looking forward to hearing about yours.
