[QUOTE="Farnboro John, post: 1428014, member: 36432"] My list built up rapidly, not least because my mother and I got competitive. It went something like this: 1982 0 1986 300 (Bonaparte's Gull) 1989 400 (Red-breasted Nuthatch) 2004 500 (Ovenbird) today 518 (Alder Flycatcher last) But of course there are big days (126 my personal best, not among the top there!) and year lists (326 personal best, can't compete with some) and just great days out with familiar birds. I've seen 23 Red-footed Falcons, cos they're delightful. Only one Blyth's Reed Warbler cos they're anything but. Enjoying birding is the main thing. John [/QUOTE]
