Erm - not as pathetic as my score of 15 for that round (for a Reed Bunting)!!!

Ahem... did nobody notice I got zero in two different rounds?

I'm not a bad birder, I just spent 14 days of my life in category two when I was a blossoming birder!

If at any point you get a lifer and want to add it to your score then let me know and I will increase your score. The game isn't finished- it carries on with the new birds you see.

And round 1 of the 2007 year list version is now on!

Yippee - popped out today for 20 minutes and managed to add Yellowhammer and Common Linnet to my life (and 2007) list! So, can I have another 35 points please!!!

Just noticed that I completely missed Part 9 - score for that round was 130 (includes todays Linnet so don't add on twice!)
CLaire:t:

I reckon that all adds up to 1490 for all 10 parts.

Sorry I am a bit behind. Round 9 I scored 905 and then Round 10 a pathetic 335 (I have only ever seen one American passerine, Red-eyed Vireo) so a combined 1240 puts me on 13340
I knew Jane would be miles ahead.

OK, I finally updated my scores... I count "heard-only" birds, but I don't count category C birds (nor the released Red Kite I saw near Oxford), so I guess that evens out.
For the Netherlands (Cat 3), it would be 14330 (I would have even more points if some birds like vultures would have occurred in the UK...).
In the UK (Cat 1), it's 3180 as yet... but there's a lot of room for improval (without twitching), and I may have seen a few birds more (I must have seen Willow Warbler!)
