2013 and beyond

It's pretty simple: the most birds seen or heard from one's yard during 2013 will be the "winner". Want in? O.k....then do it despite that.

2013 promises to be a lot less mean but still a carbon-free birding competition, even if slightly less exciting than a MEGA x EPIC hybrid.

    Nice Big Rig - is that timberdoodle (yes, because of you I've taken to calling them by that) at an area park or is that really your backyard? You habitat tycoon.

    My bird-dog Lilly flushed one up from my soon-to-be new yard on March 21! It was out in the cattails in a mud hole, a definite migrant.

    Yup, Kitty, its my yard. As to "habitat tycoon" I don't know that I can own the monicker since this property lacks wetlands. When are you into the new digs? Glad you're happy timberdoodlin'!

    Bread, injuries would have been minimal to non-existent.

    FRAZLed, me doodlin' with the timber?! After all, a bird in the h...

    DASHed, that's a very probing question.

    Haasenpfeffer, you silly rabbit, lay it down!

    Swung it from a safe distance, woodcocks are more dangerous than most (female) birders think.
