On January 21, 2026, ABC met to celebrate our year!

We now have a new champion, Craig Miller! He not only set the record for 2025, but he broke the 253 record set by Will several years ago! Here’s Craig being congratulated by Bruce LaBar:

Check out our lists of winners (http://abcbirding.com/2025-northwest-birding-champions/) to see if you’re on it! Many of you are! Then read all about the 253 Club and Craig’s feat! http://abcbirding.com/the-253-list-keeps-growing/.

We enjoyed seeing bird photos from our members, including Craig’s “Don’t Blink!” collection, showing a couple thousand photos in the same period of time that the rest of us used 5 photos!

Art shows his philosophy of life through birds!

Keep up the good work, all!
