A last 2 attempts today failed to produce that all important one more species for 2016. I am not unhappy it's been a great year for me, for many I think.
At LFGP today, new in a rare December Shelduck in the SW corner til dark, 2 Jack Snipe, 29+ Snipe, Little Egret, Cetti's and Water Rail should hopefully all be available tomorrow to help kick off another year list. Will I find that Ferruginous?
The Shelduck was new for December, making a new high count of 87, beating the old 2010 record by one.
The month species total counts went like this;
New or = 1st place :
January - 90
March - 99
May - 96 (= 2012)
June - 90
October - 99
December - 87
New or = 2nd place :
February - 88 (= 2008)
August - 101
September - 102
November - 86
New 3rd place :
April - 108
Happy New Year everyone, I hope the fireworks end abruptly.
