Bird Points Game Version 3.0-British Garden Birds!!! (1 Viewer)

I don't know what to do! Erm cos if I gave everyone 10 points for every single bird that isn't on the list it wouldn't be fair, I will give a limit of 5 birds not on the list so if you have alot you can only get a maximum of 50 points for them. SO I will give Jane and Kat 50 points.
If anyone else has had 5 or more birds that are not on the list please let me know and I will sort it out. I should have thought of this earlier.
 
I have five (at least) that aren't on your list. Yellow Wag, Sand Martin, Common Tern, Canada Goose, Cormorant spring to mind, but I think there are probably a few more.

That's fair.... I'll make my five birds White-rumped Sandpiper, White-winged Black Tern, Wryneck, Yellow-browed Warbler and Long-tailed Skua!
 
I've added 50 points for each of you that has seen 5 or more other birds. Final pat is coming up. Janes garden truly is spectactular.

The final part.....

Well, it has been great running these bird points games and I love doing them but I think until the yearlist 08 version, this may be it. But you can update your scores for all of them if you have seen anything new since we played.
I'll miss the points games :-C , I have come up with ideas for local patch points games and even day points games but I don't think they will catch on. If you think otherwise then please tell me.

Any way we finish off the bird points games for 2007 with part 7 of version 3.0 Garden Birds and a total of 77 points available for this round:

Brambling 9
Bullfinch 9
Greenfinch 4
Goldfinch 4
Siskin 6
Linnet 8
Redpoll 9
Hawfinch 10
Yellowhammer 9
Reed Bunting 9

25 for me
