Backyard Birding
Threads done up to here. This starts July 1st but you can certainly plan your books... Have fun!
Ooooo I’ll join!! I literally have just gotten into birdwatching in my backyard (and getting a million bird feeders) over the last few weeks 🤣
Will have to finish the last 3 on the list tomorrow (and create links for the last 6). Out of time tonight... Welcome to all!
Your threads are set, Shannon and Carrie.
Carrie - you are linked as "Second Carrie" right under the first Carrie on the participants list.

Thank you






































Duration: One year from your start
We're going backyard birding! This is an individual challenge. Each bird can be located a few different ways - only one option per bird is needed. Birds search lists will be released to you in sets of 5. Some of the birds are quite common and others are more rare, but all can be seen from your backyard (depending where you live). Bird badges will be awarded as each set of 5 birds are located. A total of 30 birds are available... how many can you find by the end of the year??
There is a 140 page minimum page limit for a book to count for this challenge.
For each option d. provided under a bird, if a letter is repeated in a word then YES, you must find that letter twice in your title or series name.
You may not use any books completed prior to July 1st for this challenge. If you are less than 50% through a book when the challenge starts, that can be used.
Each participant will be given their own thread. There will be no check in on a separate thread. Sets of 5 birds will be released as each set is found.
