Back in 2020, I challenged birders in Philly, Delaware County, and Montgomery County to see which county could--
- Find and report the most birds for the year on eBird
- Have the most eBirders report 200+ species in the county that year
- Have the highest eBirder total
- Have the highest eBird yard list for the year
- Have the most birders report over 100 species for their yard on eBird
It was a lot of fun, and boosted local birding big time (more details to be published elsewhere soon!). We ran the contest in 2020 and 2021, then added Chester County this year. I post monthly updates on social media to spur on the local birding. Here is the latest update for the end of September.
We are having a lot of fun, even if other counties are kicking the crud out of my DelCo birders. I'm mostly interested in the eBirders over 200 and Yards over 100 categories, as they are categories anyone can really aspire to and represent increased levels of local birding for most birders.
