That is okay, you pick up on things such as bird behavior, where they are found etc. I know the list I keep is one I have had for 20 years or so. I enjoy finding new birds for sure but also enjoy finding birds I haven't viewed in years!. I found one that I hadn't seen since 1995, so that was a thrill.And with photography, I can now add 'attempting to get the best shot' to my list of things to look for other than "life birds".... But to find more than your listing found in your area, make a point to travel, find more....it is a life long hobby, not a race to the finish line....</blockquote>
