Subject: [Tweeters] eBird count vis a vis ABA

Does anyone have any experience trying to reconcile their count of sightings on eBird to an official ABA count?
After my last trip i see that on eBird I passed a significant milestone of ABA Area species.  I'm curious what that number would look like if it were just ABA countable species. I've pulled up the ABA checklist, but know that there are some birds countable in one area, (e.g. some Parrots in Florida), that are not countable elsewhere. Any suggestion on resources or methods to get a valid ABA count?
Perhaps I should post a list of questionable species here and hope that you experts could help??
Thanks,Dick Porter
