As 2025 winds down, it’s time to start thinking about submitting your list numbers to the Illinois Audubon Society’s Listers Corner. State Life Lists, County Lists, Big Days, Site Lists and many, many more. Whether you submit in one category or dozens, we want them all. If you’re wondering what the categories are, simply visit Listers Corner (https://illinoisaudubon.org/listers-corner) and browse away. Need help putting your lists together? We have some list blanks that many have found helpful: 1) the 2025 Listers Corner Blank Form, for those who prefer to send in their lists via snail mail, 2) a County Ticks Excel sheet which will automatically add up your county totals by region, 3) a simple Illinois List blank form, in either Excel XLSX or PDF format, and 4) a Total Counties per Species (TCPS) Excel sheet that is the easiest way to keep track of your county lists. Email me and I'll send out whatever you like.
Submission can be through the US mail or via email; whatever you prefer. Questions? Never hesitate to send an email to me at trp...@aol.com
