* The ABA’s Young Birder of the Year program has run without interruption since 1998. In 2011, we changed the way that we numbered the years so that a young birder winning in early 2012 (for work completed in 2011) would be designated 2012 Young Birder of the Year, not 2011, as they would have been under the original system.
