High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Ludlow Griscom Award for Outstanding Contributions in Regional Ornithology is an award bestowed by the American Birding Association upon individuals who are determined to have dramatically advanced the state of ornithological knowledge for a particular region, through long-term studies of status and distribution, the writing and/or publication of field guides to birds of a certain area, work as part of a breeding bird atlas project, through the publishing of academic papers on regional ornithology, or through their efforts in inspiring and teaching about the subject of birding. One of five awards presented by the ABA for contributions to ornithology, the award is named after Ludlow Griscom, considered the Dean of the Birdwatchers, a pioneer in field ornithology, and one of the first ornithologists to stress the possibility of identification of birds in the field as opposed to the collection of specimens. Considered the highest honor the American Birding Association can bestow upon an individual, the award was first presented to Roger Tory Peterson, considered the father of the modern field guide, in 1980.
