Which species will be the 2013 ABA Bird of the Year?!

by Robert Mortensen

The era of the Evening Grosbeak, a singularly worthy Bird of the Year for 2012, is drawing to a close.  And though it pains us to give that noble finch a shortened reign, we're putting all future Bird of the Year announcements on the traditional calendar from here on out.

Which means the announcement of the 2013 BOY is imminent.  

Check back Monday morning, January 7th, for the official announcement!
