10 years of birding

It certainly was a fateful moment when 12-year-old me glanced out of the back window of my home back in 2012 to see a large, strong, agile bird dart across the sky only to land in the (now cut-down) Elm across the alley. I quickly grabbed the toy binoculars nearest to the window and took in its general markings: streaked breast, tall posture, long tail, etc…and came to the conclusion I had seen a Peregrine Falcon! (wrong)

After hours of pouring over iBird pro which my dad had installed in my iPad a few months prior, I still was trying to convince myself the bird was a Peregrine while something inside me said it was really a Cooper’s Hawk. Even now, from the vivid memory of that bird, it was most certainly one of the resident Cooper’s Hawks which proves an important lesson for overzealous young birders: always be cautious, diligent, and conservative with bird ID.

One hundred thousand misidentifications later, here I am having birded on 6 continents and having found some of my most-wanted avian species like Great Gray Owl, Magellanic Woodpecker, Superb Lyrebird, and much more. So I thought it would be fitting that after 10 years of birding I would list my specific favorite life birds from year to year (and for most of them, pictures and my corresponding blog posts). So I hope you do read through these flashback blog posts to see not only the evolution of my birding & writing style, but also all of the people along the way who have helped me find such magnificent birds. Family, friends, and the folks you meet along the way are indeed half the fun of birding (and that’s coming from an introvert!). After all, all but one of these lifers were shared experiences with others!

TOTAL LIFE LIST:
1126 Species (most recent life bird from 11-26-21: Pink-footed Goose)

Also for your perusal I included my life list here which is self-written so it may have some slight inconsistencies and definitely needs a taxonomic update, but is better than nothing. I also included their location first found, and for some, their conservation status.

Good birding!
