![]() ![]() Anyway, we thought you might enjoy our Top 10 birds of 2022-and hope you might share some of your own!Ĭoming in at Number 10 for Braden was the Florida Scrub-Jay, which is remarkably vulnerable in Florida, but Braden got to see with his birding buddy Nick Ramsey on their epic Spring Break Florida adventure. I suppose it’s like being super excited about Barry Manilow when you first heard him-and then realizing you could be listening to the likes of the Rolling Stones, Neil Young, and John Lee Hooker. It’s funny, though, how some birds we might have been super excited about when we first saw them often drift lower on the list. ![]() ![]() Our own “Top 40” lists have diverged a bit since Braden is now on the East Coast for most of the year-but this year we still managed to have a lot of birding adventures together, and so have a lot of common birds on our list. This probably stems from the many hours I listened to Casey Kasem counting down the American Top 40 every weekend as a youth. A tradition Braden and I have formed over the years is to make top birds lists after any big trip or, as this year, for our entire year of birding. ![]()
