Birding by Points 2010 (1 Viewer)

Sadly Owen I believe its 100 points, I guess the Housefinch would have to be the same until the 'higher powers' make judgement.

I would honestly be surprised if it was worth any points at all! ;)
Whilst I personally do tick it, is it actually countable for the purposes of this game? ;)

A fantastic trip to Fair Isle takes me upto 4710 including several self found Barred Warblers and Rosefinches and an Icterine Warbler
 
4465 now with self found Puffin and Pomarine Skua (lifer) as well as goodies such as Citrine Wagtail and Ortolan Bunting
 
7090 now, goodies include Green Heron, Rose-coloured Starling, Great White Egret, Grey Phalarope, Great Grey Shrike, Barred Warbler and Surf Scoter.

I also appear to be missing a bird from my table, but I haven't worked out which one yet...
 
5135 now. American Bittern being the best of my new ones. Missed off Cirl Bunting.

the 7090 posted above was my lifelist total, posted it by accident
 
my apologies for not being online much over the last couple of months, I've been settling into college and of course birding has been busy! They're my excuses anyway.
