    Rare and Scarce Birds in Staffordshire

    Doesn't complaining about a posting of a sighting of a rare and scarce bird in staffordshire kind of make this whole thread obsolete? What are we allowed to post about { i have a robin in the garden} Do you think anyone who would break the law and be considered a serious egger not have as much...

    Rare and Scarce Birds in Staffordshire

    Ref naming a rare bird. The chase is a big area and no details are given. Can't see a problem myself. It doesnt state a nest site or mention a pair, just a sighting of a single bird. Whats the use of a rare and scarce thread if simple sightings can't be listed? I know i'm going to get shot down...
