Still Time for Silhouettes

Are you all afraid of a tough birding ID challenge? It certainly seems so based on how few of you have taken a shot at our Perceptive Peterson Field Guide Giveaway. You still have until midnight tonight to submit your guesses. There’s more than a free copy of the Peterson Field Guide to Birds of North America on the line here… there’s also your pride!

Mike is a leading authority in the field of standardized test preparation, but he's also a traveler who fully expects to see every bird in the world. Besides founding 10,000 Birds in 2003, Mike has also created a number of other entertaining but now extirpated nature blog resources, particularly the Nature Blog Network and I and the Bird.

    Oh mike – I think you went a bit overboard with that one. Not one, but two pages with silhouettes to ID, who has the time?
    I have an average of 2-3 minutes to spare for every blog I visit, and there a quite a lot of us, who do a great job in their blogs and you don’t want to miss.
    In that regard it was just too much to tackle for me.
    Generally a good idea though. Maybe 1 page with 10 birds but not over 40!!
    Cheers, Klaus
