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.

83/111

This is possibly my best yardbird of 2012, behind NSWO I think, esp. given the 'salvage' aspect of the story. Wow:
Just to clarify, this photo was taken from down on the shoreline. I found her while scanning the RNDUs from my vantage on my property but was unable to get a good photo b/c she went behind the trees to the SE corner of Amazie. Later in the day she returned to where I could more easily see her from my vantage, with 1 LESC and the 20something RNDUs:

And after working hard on these guys as flybys during the rain, it was nice to get a couple on the water

Quick note: my life yarbird lists were 2 behind all this time since I forgot to include Mute Swan and Tree Swallow, hence this is 111 not 109
