Name a Bird You've Seen 2 (2 Viewers)

2846. Black-faced Cuckoo-shrike
Ok, it looks like Delia played Black-faced Cuckooshrike for bird #756, and luckily for me White-rumped hasn't gone. As I've been playing it, I do three strikes and your out for ten, then you get a clean slate again. Not sure what the others have been playing. I've been trying to avoid the temptation of searching first before posting, because it's more fun. I see it like we're all in it as a team, trying to see how far we can all get between us :).

So I'll edit the number on my post for WR Cuckooshrike. Hope the regulars chime in soon, it's been a bit quiet today!

.... do you mean it was a waste of time me editing that post to put the list on Sue:eek:

It's great to see you in here lass... but I've run out of birds now, unless there's some more N. European ones to play!

I bet there are Delia. Things like Ruddy Turnstone, Short-eared Owl and Lesser Redpoll have only been played really recently

I thought the Turnstone went in the early days? And not by me, I don't think, someone else nabbed it LOL. I'll go look.

No, not a waste of time for people who aren't asleep at the wheel. I also noticed you got a Major Mitchell's. I would have loved to have seen one.

I will not look first, but I'll bet I'll be out for 10.
