Gustavus Birding Big Day 2010 Species List Posted on July 27th, 2010 by

On May 15, 2010, sixty-three Gusties went birding. Many of these adventurers were located right here in Minnesota, but others were spread out throughout the country and still others were situated on different continents. Wherever they were, they compiled a list of the birds they saw on the first annual Gustavus Birding Big Day.

A very respectable total of 367 bird species was observed by participants across the globe, representing three continents (Africa, Europe, North America), three countries (Sweden, Tanzania, United States of America), eight U.S. States (California, Colorado, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, North Carolina, Virginia, Wisconsin), and eighteen different locations in Minnesota. Below is the list of species observed in alphabetical order. Join us next year for the second annual Gustavus Birding Big Day on Saturday, May 14, 2011.
