The Big Year
Everything Everywhere Daily
Introduction
This chapter explores the concept of 'big year' in bird watching, where enthusiasts compete to view and count as many bird species as possible in a year. It also discusses the history and evolution of bird watching as a popular hobby.
Many people have hobbies—pastimes that they enjoy and maybe even spend a lot of money on.
However, there are some people whose hobbies become an obsession.
This is particularly true in the world of birdwatching. Some birders have spent their entire lives trying to view and count as many species of birds as possible, and an exceptional few have tried to do it in a single year.
Learn more about the Big Year and how birdwatching became competitive on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
