    If I had gotten my act together back in Cornwall this year I could have (probably successfully) twitched birds like Roller and RB Fly (c10 miles and 1 mile away respectively). But I didn't. I think I should try and sort out a bicycle anyway which would make things a lot easier, although a bit...

    Ha. Not done any proper birding hardly this year it seems. A few minor things on the garden list but that's it. Next month maybe ... ?? ;-)

    Ummm ... I thought it was quite simply always there on page #1 of this thread - in post #7 to be exact, so no real need to bring it forward? - Just remember it's always near the beginning of the thread- hit the first page (1 near the top left of this page next to prev) and drop down a few...

    Welcome along Dave (y) I've added your list to the N America tab on the spreadsheet, and the asterixed birds to the World list. To add new birds to either going forward, all you really need to do is click on the box you wish to type (or paste) into and enter the data you wish to add (the box...

    I've copied your lists to the spreadsheet - looks like UK list is on 68 now. (I haven't checked whether there are any additions to the World list). Hopefully something that can be got in the area again if indeed it was?!

    So to update my UK Green list - 1st January 56 Tufted Duck and 57 Great Tit - both omitted from my list by mistake (but that's the beauty of other people posting their birds that you can notice such things!) 4th January 58 Teal whilst on a run down to the local reservoir 5th January 59...

    Four of my additions (I was going to write sightings, but realised that would be wrong!) for Jan 1st on this thread were heard only. (Goldfinch, House Sparrow, Goldcrest and Blackcap). It was a bit blustery and having overslept I wasn't hanging around!

    Aagghhhh! ;-) I think my personal opinion remains that nocmig records (same as birds found deceased or camera trap records) count for the ornithological record (eg for a site list), but not for personal lists*. So I would say no. But a dedicated nocmig, or nocmig listing thread would be very...

    See we're up to 108 already for the world list ... nice one! (Spreadsheet link in post #7) I would recommend people post their lists/sightings on the thread too tho - much more interesting reading the sightings on here than on a spreadsheet imo, and also be aware that as the spreadsheet is open...

    For most UK birders it's not just about remembering the extra bits that go in front of a birds name, it's finding them unnecessary and unwieldy (bring back Dabchicks and Bonxies!). In normal use very few use the long proper names. But because it's an international effort, the world list at...

    Yes, welcome aboard. And nice one on the eagle! Looks good, yep. Technicality, I've amended Rock Dove to Feral Pigeon. Looks like I've already made an omission on my list, as I had forgotten Great Tit on day 1 lol! (I expect we'll tidy up the spreadsheet as it goes along. I personally don't...

    The link to the shared Googlesheets spreadsheet. I've kept all previous participants names on it for now. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dW1rGP2gp4S8FG4N42esuX7g2yoJ6cCxeV_Tv_Kqfrw/edit?usp=sharing The idea of this thread is definitely twofold in my opinion, with sharing your own...
