It's February 1, and we are asking for Meadowlands Big Year participants to e-mail us their totals so far (if they have not done so already.
At last count, four birders have announced they are competing in this friendly competition to promote birding in the Meadowlands — two in district and two outside.
We have two totals thus far.
As a side contest, they are competing against the NJMC's Mike Newhouse as well.
There's still 11 months left, so feel free to jump in and join the fun. It costs nothing to participate, and we are offering some nifty prizes.
If you are competing off the radar, please e-mail Jim Wright at jim.wright (at) njmeadowlands.gov so we know you are out there.
Much appreciated, and good luck to all.
Competition details are here.
WE ARE AT ABOUT 40 SPECIES

Ramon and Lillian,
This is great to hear. There’s a Birds of the Meadowlands checklist available at the Environment Center in DeKorte Park if it is helpful to keep track…
Best,
Jim
