Lichfield Birder
...should've been here 5 minutes ago, mate....
So who's got the best blockers on their UK list. The blocker would be rated higher if:
1. The bird was only seen by a v limited number of people. Score 5 if less than 5 people saw, 4 if less than 10 saw, 3 if less than 50, 2 if less than 100 and 1 if more than 100
2. It was seen a v long time ago - score 5 if before 1970, 4 if in 70s, 3 if in 80s, 2 if in 90s and 1 if in 00s
3. The worldwide population is so low that it suggests it may not be seen here again - score 5 if less than 100, 4 if 100-500, 3 if 500-1000, 2 if 1000 to 5000, and 1 if 5000+
4. Distance the bird probably travelled - score 5 if over 8,000 miles, 4 if 8000-4000 miles, 3 if 4000-2000, 2 if 2000-1000 and 1 if less than 1000
Doubt there will be many scoring 20, but could be interesting anyway.
