Overview

Improve your birding skills as you identify more and more birds and learn their habits. Maybe someday you'll become an ornithologist!

The Challenging Part

The most challenging requirement of this honor is probably this:

10. Make a list of 60 species of wild birds, including birds from at least ten different families, that you personally have observed and positively identified by sight out of doors. For each species on this list note the following:

a. Name

b. Date observed

c. Place observed

d. Habitat (i.e., field, woods, river, lake, etc.)

e. Status where observed (permanent resident, winter resident, summer resident, migrant, vagrant)
