2014 North Carolina Science Species 
10,000 Birds
JANUARY 9, 2013
On a Big Year, every species counts equally, even the lowly House Sparrow. Ali Iyoob is looking to break the North Carolina Big Year record of 351 this year. As of my writing this he is off to a roaring start with 169 species recorded already. That would be more species than are on his life list!

Mark Kirk and Alisha Belo are doing a southern Africa big year, trying to see 800 species.
