UK currently on 68. I'm sure there easy species missing. Note it is starting from Nov 1st for England, Scotland, Wales and N Ireland for simplicities sake.

Mainland Europe on 110. I've eliminated the obvious duplicates - there may well be more - please flag them up on here or amend the table.

I've kept a garden list of everything found since 23rd March. So far, this is the list.https://littlehadhambirding.blogspot.com/2020/04/garden-list-during-self-isolation.html

Mainland Europe on 110. I've eliminated the obvious duplicates - there may well be more - please flag them up on here or amend the table.

I've just trawled through the spreadsheet Dan and found quite a few duplicates in the Mainland Europe one, I chickened out of deleting them for fear of destroying your handiwork!
Duplicates found:
Great Spotted Woodpecker, Grey headed Woody, Black Woody
Black Redstart
Mute Swan
Yellowhammer
Bullfinch
Siskin
Marsh Tit, Great Tit, Blue Tit, Crested Tit, Coal Tit
Treecreeper
Mallard
Griffon Vulture
House Sparrow
Blackbird
Nuthatch

I added Lammergeier today, 'scoped while sitting on our new bench (that took 4 months to arrive after ordering!):t:
Gerald has 'Redstart', I would guess it's Black Redstart at this time of year?

Thanks again for doing this Dan.

 

[Jon Turner]

Saw a Woodcock yesterday. Haven't looked to see if it's already on the list.

Cheers Richard!

I will update later this evening. Was hoping someone would do it as, well, too much going on at the moment and as soon as I tried comparing my brain started protesting ...

KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON:t:

If you want to play without actually deleting anything ... choose the 'strikethrough' (puts a line through something) and will highlight them up, I can always do the actual deletion later. Also it is possible to go back to earlier versions if everything goes wrong.

Nice one on the Lammergeier!

 

[Richard Prior]

Strikethroughs done!
Keeping an eye out for 'Vigo' but the only immature Lammergeier I've seen lately was one of this year's young, still following an adult.

The link to the googledocs spreadsheet can be found >HERE<

UK 90
Rest of Europe (can't really say Mainland Europe with Iceland now!) 99

Hopefully changes correct.

Knot, Common Ringed Plover and Grey Plover today for UK. Haven't added them to the spreadsheet as I'll only break it.

10 Flamingos flew over my house this morning. I have tried to add it to the list.

 

[Nutcracker]

Can't remember if Dipper is on yet or not - but if it isn't, it is now, saw one this morning :t:

 

[Nutcracker]

Quick look through the thread, I don't see Common Snipe on - had 3 a couple of days ago :t:

Ditto Common Crossbill - 6 y'day

Is Gadwall not on yet? Another I've had :t: Ooops, it is on already!

A lovely sight this morning, 40 cranes flew over!
