I can't wait for next year to start. I feel like next year will be my most successful year. I just want the rules to come out!

I googled some stuff up on this event:

Ohio Science Olympiad - Trial Event - Ornithology - 2009

Animal Diversity Web - Aves

Introduction to Bird Species and Ornithology

Science Olympiad, National Bird List (I have no clue about the year of this list)

I'll keep adding to this as I find stuff.

That's a lot of info! The list that you posted said in the link that it was Ornithology 2009, so I'm guessing that's Ohio's list.

i think the lists and rules will generally be the same

Oh boy... The lists actually look pretty long, but I guess it's just an illusion because it goes down to the species insead of just genus or family.

When I opened it I was like "DANG! Three pages?!" It looked way longer then A&R's but it only contains around 75 species (I think).

Probably. Does anybody know of any good field guides? I imagine the one in the rules will be good, but do you know which one might be it?

Looks to me like 125...should be harder than A+R.

For field guides, the Sibley one looks good, but I don't think it has ID in it. Peterson/Audobon will probably be good.

Would we be allowed to have a binder or book or something?

Sorry, accidentally posted it twice.

normally the first year is a binder and the second is a book but i could be wrong
you might want to prepare for both just in case
