The Year List

VillageWeaver, St. Lucia, South Africa
I close out the year with 606 species, my highest lifetime total, adding 298 species to my life list to bring it up to 1079. Obviously, these numbers are inflated by my trip to South Africa. Of those 298 species, only 4 were seen in the United States: Lesser Nighthawk, Roseate Tern (on the same day!), Little Gull (in Delaware), and Great Shearwater which I saw flying close to shore in Cape May, a bird I would otherwise need to do a pelagic for and Larry don't do pelagics.

Shari, having spent two more weeks in South Africa than I, and who is willing to go to sea to see birds, has a much longer life list than me and I am resigned to never catching up to her. I have 1079 species on the life list.  Sometimes, when I look at my bookshelves, I'll see a book that I know I've read, and yet, I can't remember a thing about that book--plot, point, style, whether I liked it or not--nothing. When I open it I may a well be looking at it for the first time; when I read it, nothing comes back to me, it is a new book. And it could be a book a read 20 years ago or a book I read last year.

When I look at my life list, much the same happens. I know I've seen, for instance, La Sagra's Flycatcher 11 1/2 years ago, but I have no memory of the bird, or the sighting. If I ever seen one again, it will be, essentially, a life bird all over again. I know I've seen Burnt-neck Eremonela just a few months ago but I couldn't identify the bird right now if it was sitting on my monitor. I'll probably never see one again. At least my books are right here (much to Shari's chagrin; she thinks they just take up wall space) and I can re-read them when I want. (Nabokov says you can never read a book anyway; you can only re-read it.) But many species on my list must be categorized as momentary pleasures. A sighting, a tick on the day list, a smile, and then it's gone.

I'm starting to see the advantage of taking pictures--not as an aesthetic pursuit, but as an aid to memory. There are all kinds of weaver species in South Africa. I couldn't pretend to keep them straight. But at least I have a picture of a Village Weaver. As well as a
Cape Weaver, Wakkerstroom
Grosbeak Weaver, St. Lucia

                                                                Southern Brown-throated Weaver, St. Lucia


And
Southern Masked Weaver, Protea Hotel, Johannesburg
I've always said you can either bird or take pictures, you can't do both at the same time. But, given my memory, possibly I'm wrong. And with that rare admission, here is the 2017 year list. 

I bid all my birding readers a hope for many lifers in 2018. As to my non-birding readership--Happy New Year and good luck with that research paper on lunacy you must be writing if you're reading this.
