Last week, we posted the full list of birds seen by 2012 Meadowlands Big Year Grand Prize Winner Chris Takacs.
Today we thought we would post the lists of our other two winners, Doug Morel (left) and Ramon Gomez — both of whom tallied 171 species, the highest totals for competitors who lived outside the district.
Congrats to both Ramon and Doug, and sorry for not having good photos of them to share.
You can download a pdf of Ramon's list below — Ramon did his Big Year old-school, and it's pretty neat to look at.
Doug's list follows.
