I am not into lots of lists. I keep one "life list" and I only count a bird if I have taken an identifiable photo to go with it.
So far up to 94 species and I started in earnest in around 2010-2011~ish.
It's US Northeast only.
How am I doing and this is how it's organized. It's in PowerPoint with one page per species.
