FWIW, "define:quadding" returns no hits in Google, but
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=quadding is much more useful. The first
hit provides:
"What is Quadding?
"Quadding is a variation on county or town birding: in this case, I use a
topographic map of my area to define the area in which I concentrrate my
birding efforts. Because there is no coast in my "quad," one of the tricks
is to work on getting birds that are primarily coastal. I've given up trying
to keep my yearly list up to date, but I have updated my list of the last
eight years of quadding."
Judging from the other links, it has some other applications as well
(involving four-wheel ATVs and Texas A&M ROTC hazing rituals).
