I once met a birder in SE AZ who only counted birds on his life list for species where he had observed an adult male. Now, I realize that it's his list and he can do whatever he wants with it, but my immediate thought was how sad...he is surely missing out on the nuanced and subtle beauty of female-plumaged birds.
