Many birders know that John Vanderpoel is very close to setting a new Big Year record for the ABA birding area (North America north of Mexico) with only two days remaining. Ron and I are taking John tomorrow to Whitby Harbour hoping that the Smew returns. If you see the Smew, please post immediately to Ontbirds as many people haven't seen it. See link to follow John Vanderpoel's Big Year. http://www.bigyear2011.com/
