One of the games that birders like to play is keeping and organizing lists of the birds they see. These varied lists may include a “life list” tallying all of the species the birder has encountered in the wild, various regional lists with all of the birds seen in a specific geographic area (World, Country, State, County Yard Lists, etc.) and of course lists for specific time periods.
Ho ho ho! Christmas is approaching quickly... If you are just starting to look for Christmas gifts for someone who loves birding, look no further – we created the ultimate Christmas gift list!
