I just ran across Larry Lade's thread about how many owls people have seen. It made me think about a group of birds that I love, the gulls. What I like about them is that they're big, they usually stay put long enough so you can study and identify them, and they can be long-distance travelers, so some unusual gulls can show up anywhere.
My gull list stands at 31.
Heermann's Gull
Sooty Gull
Mew Gull (aka Common Gull)
Ring-billed Gull
California Gull
Great Black-backed Gull
Kelp Gull
Glaucous-winged Gull
Western Gull
Yellow-footed Gull
Glaucous Gull
Iceland Gull
Thayer's Gull
European Herring Gull
Lesser Black-backed Gull
Heuglin's Gull
American Herring Gull
Caspian Gull
Yellow-legged Gull
Slaty-backed Gull
Great Black-headed Gull
Black-headed Gull
Slender-billed Gull
Bonaparte's Gull
Andean Gull
Laughing Gull
Franklin's Gull
Little Gull
Ivory Gull
Sabine's Gull
Black-legged Kittiwake
I hope to add Mediterranean Gull and Audoin's Gull to my list on a birding trip to Tunisia in March.
