Over the years, 10,000 Birds has had many wonderful people write on the blog.  Some no longer do.  This is who those ex-10,000 Birds bloggers are and where you can find them now.

…

Charlie Moores blogged on 10,000 Birds from 2007 until early 2011 and was vital to the success of 10,000 Birds shifting from an individual blog run by Mike to a group blog with Charlie, Mike, and Corey all providing content.  Charlie can now be found at his podcasting website, Talking Naturally, and on Twitter.

…

Jory Langner was our long time Avian Quizmaster from before when 10,000 Birds added the Beat Writer concept.  He stumped everyone so often that challenging birders lost its fun and he hung up his keyboard in October 0f 2011.  You can’t find him online unless you look very hard.

…

Christopher Ciccone was the New England beat writer at the end of 2010 before he decided that he could no longer commit to blogging on a schedule.  You can find him in Massachusetts or on his original blog, Picus Blog.

…

Bill Thompson was the Offbeat Birding beat writer for over a year until a host of other commitments made him unable to continue to post monthly.  You can still read his blog posts on his home blog, Bill of the Birds.

…

Patrick Belardo was the New Jersey and Butterfly beat writer at the end of 2010 before he had to scale back on blogging because of the requirements of his job.  You can still find him in New Jersey or on his original blog, The Hawk Owl’s Nest.

Daniel Rhoads was the Cyprus beat writer for almost a year before he realized that he is far too busy to do such things.  You can find him on Migrations, his excellent blog on birding and issues surrounding hunting, legal and illegal, in Cyprus.

…

Mike Freiberg was the Rocky Mountain beat writer for almost a year before realizing that between his job and blogging he wasn’t spending enough time birding! You can still find him at birding events at which Nikon Sport Optics has a presence and on the blog he writes for Nikon, Birding to the Edg.

…

Robert Gallardo was briefly the Honduras beat writer on 10,000 Birds before his ridiculously busy schedule precluded him from continuing to write here.  You can find him in Honduras, where he runs an ecolodge and a tour company.

…

Rick Wright shared quite a few posts as the Birds for Worders beat writer.  You can find him on his blog, Aimophila Adventures, and sometimes on the ABA Blog.
