    Goose and Grey Heron Central France

    It's up to you what you tick although as this is most likely an escape, it's not considered wild on the official list, so most birders wouldn't tick it

    Hi harpyeagle and welcome! Where are you based? As a rule we only count birds seen in your home country to keep things fair, so sadly your Belize trip totals won't count towards this. I'll try and give some updates now I've left school, exam period left me with no time!
