Blimey......that's longer than my life list! which is sitting at around 42, I don't get out much ;-)

No seriously I have only recently got back into bird watching, and have only started keeping records and lists from December 2005. But even so - you are streets ahead of me. I don't know what I am doing with my time?

Hi Frogbad

Don't get down hearted. I usually birdwatch about 3 times a week at the moment. Its all about experience, and getting to as many different habitats as possible. Birdwatching with my RSPB local group has also helped increase my lists tremendously.
