1879. Blue-winged Kookaburra

EDIT just done a search and it looks like Welsh Peregrine already posted that one, so that's me out for 10

Wow, in my retirement within this sin bin I've just counted up the laughers, and we scored 46 between us on that run, and that's just the ones that actually end in "Laughingthrush" B :)

Is Blue-winged Teal available?

I'm afraid it's gone Nutty. Joining in late is tough (I discovered) and I had to read through it all so far and try to remember what's gone as best I could (not well enough, as I just got caught out with the Kookaburra). You could just try anything with Blue or-winged, or Mountain or Tanager in the name, and see what happens? We need more players.:t:

Definitely!
I have an additional problem: my modest life list has only the scientific name for each species and that makes me really slow if I don't recall the English name for them from the top of my head (or at all!) :eat:

...I also wonder if it might be an idea, now we're so far in, to let anyone coming in this late use the search (until they find a good one) before posting, for their first couple of posts? Or do a "3 strikes before you're out for 10" rule for new in-coming players?

Except I'm locked out by the rules for the next ten days or whatever . . . 3:)
