County Team Awards

2011 Results

Final results were based on a carefully calculated "par" system, realizing that not all Vermont counties are created equal in terms of avian diversity. Par scores reflect the number of species that a given county should find in a year with consistent birding effort. Although Addison and Chittenden took top 2011 honors in absolute numbers of species tallied, with 250 and 245, respectively, Windham and Windsor counties shared the 2011 Quest Cup, with pars of +31.
