    A Beginner's UK 2015 List

    Turns out it wasn't my last species after all - spontaneous trip out today got me one in at the last minute. 31/12 - Beddington Farmlands 116 - Lesser Redpoll Also, I retroactively am adding in Rock Dove/Feral Pigeon, I see no point in leaving it off so it becomes 117 altogether for the year.
