The ABA Blog ( blog.aba.org ) has a brief summary of the 4 top 2017 big year
participants with the 3rd inline being a woman Laura Keene. A great effort
by all.
I notice new vagrant a Black Kite was seen in Alaska on Jan. 3 a first for
the continental ABA area if accepted.

Dear Birders,
The ABA announced today that officially John Weigel holds the ABA big year
record. It is the result of an unbelievable effort. I offer my
congratulations to John not only for achieving such an amazing outcome but
also for the goodwill and fine spirit that he has shown throughout the
project and in his acknowledgement of his record.
I believe that in Australia the goodwill between birders has been fostered
from the top of the big listers. It is wonderful that John has picked up on
this and continues to bird with that same spirit. Well done!
