Rather than exhaust you poor readers I figured I would just share my top ten birds of 2011 with links to where I wrote about them, that is, if I did write about them. The number one bird of the year for me for 2011 is the Burrowing Owl. Because, well, owl! Will 2012 be as kind a year to me as 2011? What did I see?

For those of you playing along at home, this gives me 17 new ABA birds for a total of 467 as of May 1, 2011. On the other hand, a woefully brief glimpse of a Hook-billed Kite at Bentsen State Park was all it took to move it from my world list to my ABA list.

2011 is about to become 2012 and birders the world over are taking a look at their year lists and reminiscing about the awesome sightings and devastating dips that they have experienced.

Too bad the Snowy Owl that dad been haunting the Waterloo outlet mall parking lot didn’t stick around! Even the Mallards possessed that magic that blesses even banal birds on the first day of the year, but most pleasing were the veritable tons of Tundra Swans everywhere.
