Just for fun I’m trying the Bird-a-Day challenge again in 2012. An Audubon Magazine blogger will be taking the challenge in 2012, too, as explained in this post: Bird-A-Day Challenge Begins New Years Day 2012. I don’t have high hopes of getting very far. In fact, I’ll just be happy if I surpass my sad total of 23 birds in 2011.
