Look carefully, if I gave right the points!!!!!!!!!!

Your photographs are good, showing what the birds are really like in the field rather than portraits. This make a better type of quiz.

I am saying nothing about the points this time!

I agree - I like this sort of quiz, the photos are great fun as they are.:t:

Oh, never mind, please tell me if you prefer a) or b).

 

[Parker]

Cheers,

guessing what guessing - I go to great analytical lengths and then guess...

Oh, never mind, please tell me if you prefer a) or b).

If a) means the points system without minus points for wrong identifications I will go for that. As I have posted before, I am happy with the photographs so that means you would be hard pressed to produce better pics in the context of this 5 star quiz.

[skylark25]

hope i am not late to answer for this round...quite busy at the moment...

coot, shoveler, gadwall, teal, snipe, wigeon, mallard:t:

Agree with Allen, i don't really agree with negative scoring. Halcon it really depends on how much time you have available on your hands. It must be already difficult for you to give the right points, let alone start deducting too. Its really up to you but I personally would go for a)

 

[Jon Turner]

I quite like deducting points for wrong answers. Might make me think a bit more carefully before rushing in...

 

[James Thomas]

Points for every bird!

 

[Cheshire Birder]

Points for every bird!

But only if they are the correct bird. Points are deducted for errors.
