While I'm not doing any kind of official Big Year, this certainly is a big year for me. I started the year off in Ecuador doing my dissertation research, I attended a 1-week biology course in Belize, joined my husband during his 1-week contract work out in California, have an upcoming trip to Colorado (to run a high altitude marathon, so I'm planning on getting there a week early to acclimate and of course to go birding), and will be attending a scientific meeting in Peru later this year. The biggest trip of all will be my 3.5 weeks in South Africa this summer, my first visit to this continent! There is also the possibility of a short trip to India at the end of the year, but that's not yet certain. And, of course, there is the birding I do in my home state... when I'm here.
So here I am, starting this thread after half the year has already gone by... oh well.
