Combined Young Birders Yearlist (1 Viewer)

[Birding Bob]

Isn't Northern Harrier and Hen Harrier the same thing?

 

[Jonny721]

Your absolutely right rob I must have missed that. It's confusing the different names for the same species.

You're right Gropperwinch, poor Johnny :-O

 

[dantheman]

Yep, mad idea. But fun?

Do you have a target in mind for the year - since it's now gone global? 1000, or more? Predictions? - (if it continues )

I was also wondering if it wouldn't be easier to keep different areas seperate, and then combine the totals (It would be one way to discover if there's a limit on how long a post can be otherwise, I guess?!). Of course birds that occur in different areas would be recorded for the main list in the area they first occurred in first (eg GN Diver)... ideas, but please ignore if nec.

Anyway, I'm no longer young, so I guess it's Ciao for now ...

Here's three more Nashville Warbler and Long-billed curlew and Western Kingbird

Yeah I would do separate areas ( America, Europe...) and then add the totals.

 

[gropperwinch]

sounds slightly more logical and less mad. Perhaps I'll keep count of American list if you could PM details to me Johnny, it would lighten your load a bit and with two people probably be slightly easier to organise! Also I'm going to Canada this autumn so perhaps I might be able to add something to Canadagurl's impressive list then! (Unlikely I know!)

 

[Joseph N]

Yup I would agree about the seperation, and would also, for notable sightings put in brackets who saw what. So if it was the Bonaparte's Gull you'd put in brackets (gropperwinch) because it is a rare bird. If it is a rare bird that quite a few people have seen then put the people that have seen it in brackets as well. The same would apply to local sightings for those who live abroad. I think it gives viewers of the thread a better idea of who has seen what without them having to ask themselves, I wonder who saw the Lesser Scaup, I wonder who saw the American Wigeon?

 

[Jonny721]

Sounds like a better idea will PM you the america list in abit Gropperwinch. Will post the latest list later.

 

[canadagurl123]

here's one more with Western Sandpiper is Caspian tern already on the list? because I got that to

 

[Halcon]

Yep! I got it:-O

 

[Halcon]

PS: Could you add Pomarine Skua and Storm Petrel please?:king::king:

If you want we could divide Europe in South ( Spain, Malta...) and north (GB)
I would take the South Europe list if you want.

 

[Jonny721]

Sorry for lack of posting been busy will sort the lists out for Gropperwinch and Halcon soon.

 

[gropperwinch]

that's ok johnny, one more to add on N europe list for now, Turtle Dove

 

[Zac Hinchcliffe]

this is going to be (already is tbh) really hard to keep track of as it is split over several pages...maybe we should leave it until December, or at the end of each month? just a thought...

[Dark Knight]
