Where does the time go? This is already the fourth year I have recorded a year list on birdforum. My current total for the number of birds seen this year is 380, both in the UK and Worldwide, as of 29November2009.
My UK goal for 2009 is to hopefully beat my 2008 total of 220, again with the help of both Steve Whiteley and Dave Salisbury (DAS). A tougher challenge will be to beat my Worldwide record, set in 2008, of 443 as I currently have no planned overseas trips apart from business trips to China and Hong Kong. We will just have to see what the year brings I guess!
My current records are as follows:
-------------------UK-----Holland----China----Hong Kong----World
2009------------209--------4--------189--------113---------380
2008-------------UK-220, China-177, Hong Kong-99, Finland-17, USA-84, Canada-22, WW-443
2007-------------UK-200, China-249, WW-398
2006-------------UK-205, WW-410
2005-------------UK-183, WW-358
2004-------------UK-157, WW-276
Life-----823
China---460
UK------255
