With two weeks to go (tomorrow), I wondered if many folk have glaring holes in their year list which could still be achieved, or even holes which really should have been filled, but weren't... Do we birders engage in a last minute rush to mop up, or just rest on the new additions over the year? Also, what was added to your life lists?
I still need both the winter Swans and most of the winter Geese, Water Rail, Jack Snipe, Woodcock and Firecrest (achievable) and completely missed Wood Warbler, Pom Skua, Balearic Shearwater to name a few.
I added Slatey-backed Gull (hopefully), Issy Shrike, Pallid Harrier, Hoopoe, Collard Prat, Stilt Sand and Crane (i know, but I don't really travel outside Kent).
