Information about the contest
This contest is modeled on the NCAA basketball tournament, but you – the readers – are able to vote on your favorite bird in a series of one-on-one matchups.
Anyone can vote. Those who filled out and submitted a bracket will be in the running to win the prize – a complete set of six Sibley Guides, all signed, and with a sketch of the winning bird drawn in the Sibley Guide to Birds, Second Edition.
Information about the bracket, announcements and links to new contests, and the results, will all be posted on my Facebook page, so check in there to be sure you don’t miss the next installment.
I love the way American Avocets move together as a group! And the delicacy of their morphology.
Such an impressive tail! I wish we had them in my neck of the woods 🙂
Scissor-tailed Flycatchers remind me of a certain trip to the Rio Grande Valley and meeting a very special friend.
