|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | D J Ryves | 222 | Highlights; Tawny Pipit; BE Wheatear; Gr legs; Surf Scoter;(All Hants Ticks). Could only equal last years PB in the end and although only a very modest total but as Simon says there very few additional available. Only rarity missed was OB Pipit; Quail & Ruddy Duck eluded me despite searching only other birds I'm aware of were only seen by a few lucky birders and not generally available. Many thanks to all those who released news promptly especially those who helped and encouraged me personally with texts, calls or information. | 31/12/2015 |
| 2 | A R Howe | 214 | Highlights; Greater Yellowlegs, Surf Scoter, Bonaparte's Gull, Eastern Black-eared Wheatear, White-rumped Sandpiper, & Olive-backed Pipit. Good year for County Ticks - not so great for year listing. | 29/11/2015 |

Some embarrassing missing species but glad to make it 200 at last...Must try harder next year!! 2015 seems a funny year with it seems a lot of good birds... but tallying up what has been recorded (or what I know of), it seems that only just over 230 species have been seen, with only 225-228 being what I would call twitchable to someone with my (previous 2009) mentallity :-) PB=241 in 2009 | 30/12/2015 |
