0 for me as well. However I decided to enter my Mexico list under category "B" and came up with 59. Some of the common Baja pelagic birds helped me out (Wedge-rumped Storm-Petrel=5, Blue-footed Booby=4, etc.)

I just remember something somewhat important. If you have been submtiing heard-only species, please say so. it is completely against my own rules of the life list, but it is widely accepted, although the ABA has been rethinking what it's stated about counting heard-birds.

Hi All,

I scored 55 for round 4, though the Western Reef-Heron will probably be a Little Egret one day and I will lose a point. But for the time being...

My total is 221 after four rounds.

I finally timed it right! Top o' the page!

Come now people, fess up. Unless you want to adjust your lists so that they are only ABA countable-heard only, just tell me if you have been recording heard birds - JUST so we know that we aren't operating from the same base.

Silver Larry Lade 121
Bronze BEBirder 101

Well done birderbf, I am glad my idea has caught on. Just to start things off can you put me in category B and I have 29 points. Thanks.

I'll be a B too - and I have 50 on the ducks.
