We would like to once again encourage anyone who wants to contribute to the Green Missouri Collective Big Year to do so at anytime this year. Contribute one report, ten reports, a hundred. Got an old report from earlier in the year that you think is 'green?' Please contribute it. There are no rules, except that you consider your birding outing 'green' to you. Below are some birds we have not had added to the collective list yet. If you have one of these species in your backyard, nearby park, field, or within what seems a green distance to you, we'd love you to contribute a report on them. Here's what we don't have yet for the year: 1. Dickcissels 2. Bobolinks3. Shorebirds - we only have killdeer, solitary and spotted sandpiper4. Swan species5. Greater White-fronted Goose6. Loons7. Most duck species8. Northern Bobwhite9. Most gull and tern species10. American or Least Bittern11. Sandhill Crane12. Swainson's Hawk13. Common Gallinule14. Scissor-tailed Flycatcher 15.
