2014 - Can I see 1000 species?
I do hope so, Jon. What targets have you got for Spain?
I netted 328 in Costa Rica in three weeks mid winter (most days without a guide). A trip to either of Colombia, Ecuador, or Peru would probably net more in the same time.

A three week period in any of the tropical areas of Asia should net something similar, and a bit of travel in Africa should net you even more. The question really becomes, if you go all out, can you see 2000 in a year?
Niels
indeed Niels, 3 weeks here could yield up to 700 species!!.. so just let me know when you want to come to Colombia Jon!! ;-)
Good luck in Spain Jon, where abouts are you going?
1,000 is hardly 'modest' Jon... I foolishly told my mates I'd do that this year too... and I get staff flights! I'll take you on if you like? I've not quite hit 100 yet.
Tomorrow; SPAIN
