| = | P F Fawkes | 217 | Having failed to respond to a County 'tick' in Serin, or to the Red-backed Shrike and Yellow-browed Warblers, and having now missed out on Pied Flycatcher, I am doubtful of reaching my previous best of 223. A couple of visits to Milford-on-Sea did produce a Balearic, but little else of note, and I was fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time for Red-necked Phalarope. I have still to add Kittiwake, Ferruginous and that there Parakeet, but target almost out of sight. Still, good fun! | 24/11/2017 |

| 8 | R Sawyer | 211 | Well I am declaring. Thank goodness that is over, completely spoilt my birdwatching enjoyment, my hear sank every time I saw something on RBA for Hampshire - groan. Congratulations to Andy Johnson - good effort with some fabulous finds. Huge thank you to all the finders and the people who put me onto the birds, glad I could slightly replay with my Long-tailed Skua even if I didn't 100% ID it! Was very pleased with my 12 Hants lifers in 2017. Thanks too to the people I met at the 'twitches' who were in good humour, particularly Dave 'Puffin' Ryves and Phil Fawkes. Last but not least, thanks to Andy MacNish and Dave Taylor for their company, really appreciated it chaps. I am not doing that again in a hurry - but good luck to the 2018 listers. | 31/12/2017 |

| 25 | L T Parkin | 55 | I am a bird watchers that loves to walk in the countryside I don't chase around to get a large list at the moment I just log what I see. However I am sure when I am retired I will take up a bit more of the chase game to improve my list I started recording in 1996 and my life list is only 194 birds for the UK with 155 on my county list information from my log book will be put on to the hampshire lists. I am going to start from 2017 and work backwards until. My records are up to date | 23/02/2017 |
| 26 | L J Amey | 46 | 2016 was not a bad birdwatching year considering the last half I was unable to get out, due to illness. Still at least I beat 2015 total. Personal highlights:White-rumped Sandpiper, Wood Sandpiper (3), Caspian Gull, Red-Throated Diver, Ring-billed Gull, Little Tern, Black Tern and Bittern. (All life ticks). Thank you to everyone I have met throughout the year for their advice and tips. All the best for 2017. | 27/09/2017 |
