Hi Jacana, thanks for pointing this out, it is true that this is on everybody's spreadsheet. If you want, you can carefully remove the extra one (click on the number of the row on the left, right click and hit delete).

Thanks for the updates everyone

Sorry I havent been updating, but not many other people were, and I didn't want to turn this thread into a list of only my birds.

After a slow start thanks to the snow, I have been able to get out and about, and efficiently have caught up with my 'last years self'. The main event being a short break in Norfolk.

Highlights have been Green-winged Teal, Crane, Great White Egret, Great Grey Shrike, Ferruginous Duck, and Caspian Gull. Also self-found Hen Harrier and Red-necked Grebe.

New total 2750.

Am I too perhaps too keen? Don't worry, come next winter I shall have nothing to see, and you'll all catch me up!
 
1630 with self founds added (Hen Harrier, GN & BT Divers, BN Grebe, Bittern and Merlin)

other hightlights include Water Pipit (lifer), Cetti's Warbler, Firecrest, Black Redstart & Smew
