Corrections and additions
The bird that Alex is referring to that is "raccoon-like" in New Zealand is the Kea, not the Kakapo. The Kakapo was the 2020 champion for BOTY and the Kea was the 2017 champion.
New World Vultures are now in their own order: Cathartiformes, and are now not thought to be closely related to Storks. However it was previously thought that they were.
Arjan Dwarshuis broke Noah Stryker's record for Global Big Year in 2016 by seeing 6852 birds in 366 days.
Thanks to Kees Janssen and Vernon Fridy for the comments.
I’m sorry, but “Sewage Pond Connoisseur” has got to be the funniest oxymoron I’ve ever heard.
I should go visit my uncle soon! He’ll love it until he realizes I’m just there for his sewage pond…
Haha, it's technically not an oxymoron, but it is a hilarious combination. And I think you should do that and film his reaction 😂
I do a lot of birding by ear, as time goes on you simply know the sound of the birds that you are familiar with...but each Spring the migrants have me guessing till I play the call and then say oh YEAH...now I remember.
Haha for sure!
Entertaining iceberg to dive in to. Only additions I would have would be Illustrated Checklists, Birding Festivals and World Series of Birding
Ah shorebird ID is the best. My favorite type of birds if I had to pick 🤔 had a marbled Godwit the other day, along with my lifer Cattle Egret 😂
Nice!
My checklist streak is 1,113 days 🥶
My yard list is 109 (I live in san francisco)
Let's see, the craziest hybrid i've ever seen was an Anna's Hummingbird x selasphorus sp. in my local patch
I have a net negative for lumping and splitting: Iceland/thayers, Northerwestern/american as losses, and California and Woodhouse's as a gain
Also I take a firm stance that gulls are waaaay harder than empids!!! I mean there is stuff like herring gull backcrossed glaucous-wing gull third cycle and where I live I see hundred of them.
1,113 is a nice streak!
@@BadgerlandBirding Actually I was outside just now because I forgot to bird today and I nabbed a yellow-rumped NCFing by ear to get that 1,114 day streak!!!
@@pauraque clutch 🔥
@@BadgerlandBirding 100% but if I didn't get anything I could try your international date line method 🤣

“Seagull Steve” is in fact the seventh greatest birder on the PLANET.
Of course, I’m number 6, so I would know.

(lol)
My checklist streak is only like 778 days. I only knew about 3 things in that last section, but it's always nice to be able to learn more. Also, I must say that the entire part about swallowgating was interesting, and the laughter was contagious.
Loved this!
this was aweome! thanks!
You're welcome!
I'm a landfill enthusiast 😬
So are we👍 #landfillenthusiastsforlife
I once found a black vulture roost on google maps on this random road in lee county florida, god I was so happy you have no idea
Great video!
Thanks!
Enjoyed as usual. This must have taken a lot of thought and hard work. Well done 👍🙌🙌🙌🙌 so fun
Glad you enjoyed it! It may have been the video that has taken the most time to edit.

The family acroceophalidae:
Fair
Going on my first pelagic in July. I better not die... you guys should do a September lake Michigan or Superior pelagic video 🤣
Where at?
@@BadgerlandBirding Westport WA
@@snowyowl5556 had a great trip out of westport years ago.
@@joanneiskierka9388 excellent! Hopefully mine will be good too 😃
Does anybody know what the big year records are for ABA and Global? Thank you!
Regarding taxonomy:
New World vultures are no longer considered close to storks (Ciconiiformes). While they are far enough from hawks and eagles that they are in their own order, Cathartiformes, this group is still the sister group to Accipitriformes (hawks and eagles). And yet, that now-false factoid still gets repeated for its unusualness. You should probably watch this: m.th-cam.com/video/vrnXc7OIw9U/w-d-xo.html
As for falcons, they are equally close to songbirds and parrots (which are grouped together into Psittacopasserae). Pigeons are closer to sandgrouse and mesites, and somewhat less closely related to most of the other birds.
54:40 more like ostrich-sized
lol love it
It's not that people don't have chimneys anymore. It's that our new chimneys are too smooth for the swifts to cling to. the old ones with bricks and mortar (no liner) gave the birds a toe hold. Here in the PNW there is a preservation of old chimney campaign so the Vaux's Swifts will have places to roost.
Where is the bubingus form
You cannot talk about the global big year without mentioning the current recordholder Arjan Dwarshuis who took over the record the year after Noah Strycker had set it.

It is better than Seagull Bert; the world's number 756th Birder. He's a humble birder; never brags.
Haha 😂
You don’t have to be in NZ to vote, even though the organization is based there.
Also, the raccoon-like parrot that steals car parts and eats flesh regularly is the Kea, which is also from NZ but does fly. The Kakapo is not known for doing those things.
Additionally, many of these things should really be closer to the surface. Knowledge of Bird of the Year, the Crane Plane, the Emu War, problematic birders, and the CBC, for example, are probably more widespread among the community than you’d think.
I’m not sure if you refer to knowledge of bird banding or actually participating in banding with the “Bird Banding” item, but if the latter, it should probably be higher up.
And the woodpecker controversy is probably at least somewhat known by any birder familiar with its status.
Added a note in the pinned comment about your suggestions
I enjoyed the video and appreciate the effort put in. I do have an issue with the Ornithologist category as I feel it should be reserved for individuals with the education, credentials and professional experience to receive this title.
Hi John, we appreciate your concern and thanks for the comments. The categories are just representative of an increase in depth of topic. They aren't saying you are an ornithologist if you know those things, just that it's more niche knowledge than the previous category. Just like if you know about the categories in "chaser", it doesn't mean you are a "chaser". Of course all the topics and info is subjective as far as what category it could go into. This was just how we decided to break it up.
Wingsandbeaks here.@John Hartley~ IMHO- Too elitist. Educated does not equate to smart, talented, inventive, or capable, necessarily.
