Firstly, apologies to anyone offended by the thread title, i just dont know of another snappy way of describing this.
For those who dont know the term, a "tarts tick" is a species that you have not seen yet, but feel that you should have done.
OK, ive seen 380+ species in the uk, but still need long tailed skua, a "real" white stork, and "subalpine warbler".
By the way, I know of a birder who has seen 400+ species, but still needs Quail. He told me that long tailed skua was his 399th tick, so there is hope for me yet!.:hippy:
