Winter Birding Challenge
Our winter challenge has now ended and after 89 days of reporting, we had 125 different species spotted by our members. Here’s our list
When winter ends, spring begins and so does our Spring Challenge.
Spring Birding Challenge 2021
Last spring, we had 179 species reported by our members, so this year we are setting the bar a little higher. Our target for spring 2021 is 200 species. A bit ambitious? We’ll see. Hope our members are able to get out and start bird spotting.
