3P F Fawkes335Began taking a casual interest in local bird life in 1967 at the age of fourteen. A spell in Scotland in the mid-nineties did not enhance my Hampshire List any. Finally persuaded to delete the Sandy Point White-winged Black from my List (!), but still considering the So'ton Water Sooty Shearwater (talk about taking advantage of the vulnerable) and an early 70's Snow Goose on the Avon.13/12/2022

9D J Ryves326New for 22;Black Duck; Dipper; Nothing added in 21 but missed Baikal Teal due to sticking to covid rules and Great Reed Wbler, Black Guillemot and Western Sand due to not being in the county at the time. 15/12/2022
10A S Rhodes325Started birding in the second half of the 70's but with a stint in the RN in the 80's, regular foreign trips and the occasional "its only a Hants tick" moment means I do have some ommisions that should be on the list. A great self found Bee-eater added to the list May 2017. Lesser Scaup and Barred Warbler also new in 2017. New in 2018, Marsh Sand and Ortolan. 2019 Hooded Crow18/09/2022

=J J Goodridge306Birding since the age of 13 where I kicked off in the Horndean and Cowplain area. Then discovered Farlington Marshes and never looked back.

30S Hartill301Moved to Southampton in 1996, but sometimes crossed the county line from West Sussex, to bird beforehand. Started birding aged 9. still have glaring omissions from my county list, as not obsessive about listing. If it's a bird I have seen well abroad, I normally find it hard to motivate myself to see one in the UK or sometimes even in Hampshire, if crowds are involved! 30/12/2022
=G D Fennemore301I have lived in hants all my life and started birding sometime in 1972. Spent most of my early years knocking around farlington marshes until i learnt to drive then kind of forgot my hants list hence some glaring omissions. Hope to improve this in future20/05/2023
32D Robertson300Birding in Hampshire since Early '90's. Still looking for my bogey, Red-necked Phalarope, which I seem to continually miss!12/02/2022

34N J Montegriffo299 20/07/2021
35S Copsey298Lived in the county since 93. Birding/Listing more serious from around 2000. Cruising the Grey Funnel Line has cost me a number of good birds over the years, but I'll get round to them sooner or later.08/06/2022
=D Stevenson298 05/04/2023
37K Wills297Started birding in mid-70s, and have always lived in NE Hants. My county list has been a gradual accumulation, and I have certainly missed a few over the years. Latest additions: Wilson's Phalarope11/10/2020
38M Francis292 20/11/2023
39J Norton291Although I've been going since the late 1970s I've missed a lot due to periods spent out of the county, not being on grapevines or simply lack of interest. Updated Nov 2013 - caught up with Sabine's Gull last year and saw the Roller, Brown Shrike, Dusky Warbler and Semi-palmated Plover this year but didn't go for the Golden Oriole or Radde's Warbler.05/11/2013

41D R Bishop288Started birding in 1971 when split my time between Pennington and Portland. Part of the Hayling crew in the 80s. Living in Botswana 1989-97, annual foreign trips and autumn visits to Scilly most autumns has resulted in several major dips. I need to do some sea watching and chase a few scarce birds to reach 300! Best finds Yellow-billed Cuckoo (when I was 21 - the same age as my son - and unfortunately not repeated!), Pect Sand, Long-tailed Skua, Yellow-browed Warbler + team efforts of Ortolan Bunting & Temmincks Stint. I'm not ticking Snow Goose until I see one that looks vaguely wild - not holding my breath in Hampshire.08/12/2012
42S Woolley287Been birding in Hants since 1983 (when a right squeaker with no transport), with a four year gap 1988-92. Lots of tart's ticks still required, most egregiously Pom Skua and Puffin. Milford here I come..... Latest additions: Roller, May 2013; Dipper, Dec 2012; Balearic Shearwater, Aug 2012; Roller, May 2013; Long-billed Dowitcher & Hoopoe, August 2013; Brown Shrike, Sep 2013.22/09/2013

44K J Ilsley28525/11/2016
=P N Milinets-Raby285Just a quick count without looking up my passed notes. There are at least four or five species that I just can not remember where and which ones I've seen! When I get more time I will check through with more certainly. Best finds in this county are Alpine Swift, White Stork, Black Kite, Laughing Gull, Night Heron and Purple Heron. Did all my running around in the middle 1970's to 1980's. Since then very lethargic about anything more than 200 metres from my house!21/06/2019

49M Finlason277Moved to Hampshire from West Sussex in 1958 but only started regular birdwatching, particularly in the Titchfield Haven area, in recent years. Seen some changes in that time. Cirl Buntings for instance used to be relatively common along the coast. Saw last Hants one at Portsdown in the sixties. Remember my first Little Egret, Collared Dove and Cettis Warbler with pleasure. Due to my job I was able to birdwatch all over the planet amassing a life list of 2,422 species. My county list number is fairly low as I do not chase birds. I'd rather pick a likely spot, sit, and patiently wait for them to come to me. And in due course, guess what, they do!02/04/2017
=A Davidson277Trying to compile this now (as a former Sussex birder) I'm sure there are some I've missed, I've seen Hoopoe in all the surrounding counties but can't recall one in Hants (now in the bag).29/04/2018
51R Sawyer276Sorry Olly08/05/2023
52O Frampton274Hampshire listing at a snails pace since 2011. Missed some crippling rares due to work commitments, but still got plenty of easy targets to get. Ruddy Shelduck not included in this list.22/01/2023

=G B Langley251I moved to Hampshire (Swanmore) in June 2018 but I've visited the county many times for some 50 years. There are some glaring gaps in my county list I hope to plug eventually but, as a "world birder" with 3200+ birds on my list, I can't see sense in twitching a Hampshire guillemot! Any queries or amendments welcome. grahamlangley@yahoo.co.uk15/02/2024

74S Moger237 18/02/2024
75J Cutting236Birded on and off for years, got back into it properly in 2014 with my first ever twitch being the Lepe Lesser Yellowlegs.

76P S Scorey235I started bird watching about 1979 when I was seven years old, but it wasn't until 1995 that I started writing up year lists. I have never thought Of doing a county list so here goes. I have not got a great list of rare birds as I am more of a bird watcher, I will turn up somewhere and see what's about. (I Might Have to do a bit of twitching to improve my list ). Dates entered are dates I first saw species.22/01/2023

78P Rutter233 23/03/2023
=G Pullin233Grew up on the Broadlands Estate right alongside the River Test and started off my list strolling around the farmland and river ticking off lots of the key species. Have bird-watched a lot in Europe and remember watching 200+ Black Kites flying over-head in Southern Portugal but have never seen one in Hampshire :)29/11/2023
80R Mould-Ryan232Have been birding in Hants since my mid-teens/ late 70's; indifferent total due to long-ish periods of low or inactivity (especially since becoming a dad) and not doing much twitching. When I do get out I try to spread my time between my patch (Hamble area) and the rest of the county fairly evenly. Will fill in the list when I get half an hour......16/02/2012
81J G Ross227A bit of a patch watcher, badminston, Lepe, Fawley refinery, Calshot, Blackwell, Inchmery, exbury, Kings copse , more patches than birds!!!02/01/2024

85W G D Legge221Not conciously pursued a Hants county list but totaled it up for fun. Probably overlooked some species that I have seen in the county. Have not resided in the county since 1986 - occasional visitor from overseas these days.19/05/2015
86L Nnnn220 10/05/2020
87O Parker219Have been birding since the age of seven. Have lived in both Hampshire and Sussex. Wanted to enhance my birding knowledge so joined a local ringing group some years ago but unfortunately due to work and family commitments couldn't continue, would really like to take it up again. Have many 'ticks' still to get, must make more of an effort. Latest:- Greater Yellowlegs 2015.15/03/2016
=S Miles219Have seen more but not sure of dates so have kept dates will update more when i have time and can find dates and places. i moved here in 2007 from Kent so need to un mix where and when for species .28/06/2023

113E Farmer170I have been birdwatching in Hampshire for about 14 years since I was 9, but have been living in Kent until recently so there's a lot of gaps in my list. New for 2014 so far: Long-tailed Duck, Lesser Yellowlegs. What I really want to add next: Tawny Owl (heard but never seen), Little Owl, Barn Owl, Lesser Spotted Woodpecker, Pied Flycatcher, Waxwing, Corn Bunting.27/05/2015
=P J Honeysett170I am a 14 year old birdwatcher and I love wildlife. From a very young age I have always been obsessed with it. I only started birdwatching properly (at 10 years old) when my younger brother took interest in it. One bird that I have seen in Hampshire but cannot add, presumably because they are escapes, is a Ringed Teal at Titchfield Haven, which, despite its name, was clearly un-ringed! 09/03/2024
115J F Smith166Always been interested but drifted away till some friends encourage me about 15 years ago and then started to birdwatch regularly.Others have helped me find rarer birds like Pied Flycatcher,Ring Ouzel ,Great Grey Shrike and Hen Harrier so Thankyou to them.12/10/2022
116O T Cummins164I started birdwatching when I was nine and I thought it would be a good idea to count up my Hampshire total. Most recent: Franklin's Gull. RIP Cameron Bespolka. You will be missed.09/11/2014
117P W Driver160Berkshire birder. I see most day-to-day stuff on walks from my home in Mortimer. I occasionally visit Hants for birding trips to the coast, Forest etc, preferring to find my own birds rather than twitch (with a few exceptions!)17/12/2023
118L T Parkin158I started bird watching in 1974 aged 10 but did not start to keep records until 1996. I am a bird watcher I go out for walks look for birds and keep logs I don't go racing around the countryside looking for the next tick but you never say never it could go that way when I retire but at the moment it's just what I see whilst walking around good birding locations my best birding memories is being on holiday in the Mediterranean watching a flock of bee eaters on a hot evening catching insects about 6 foot over my head whilst I continued supping a cold beer who needs anything more my uk list is only 194 hope to get to 200 all birds seen did not uploaded a Turtle Dove only heard could not locate bad light.07/02/2017

=P Villiers156I’ve always loved wildlife but I started to take a serious interest in birding in 2000 when I met my second wife who shares my love of wildlife and also country walks – especially when accompanied by binoculars and a camera. Although I only joined the group in Dec 20, my list includes all my sightings since 2000.28/11/2023

127O A Winwood Bratchell145I started birding when i was ten, what inspired me to start birding was when i got a bird guide for my birthday, I then found out that a friend was into birding which made it easier to enjoy. I want to use this website to note down all the species that i have seen in hampshire so i know what birds that i have not seen yet. I also want to use this website to find out what species have been seen and where in hampshire they have been seen.19/01/2014

I started many years ago so my total takes this into account, whether that's ok to do or not I'm not too sure but I guess someone will soon let me know if not! Hopefully as time goes on I will be able to increase my sightings of the more elusive birds, along with the waders and wetland birds, as I know I have seen plenty recently but never really studied them to record.05/06/2013

=Y Glasspool1I am very new to Bird watching and photography. I am only just starting to get out and about. I tried to go to Fishlake Meadows yesterday however could not find an entrance to the lake. Please if anybody knows how email me on yazglasspool@gmail.com. Also I would love any advice and comments on any sites you think would be good for a beginner photographer. I am a member of the RSPB and also the Hawk Conservancy in Andover.11/07/2016

=M Cutts1I have been in the county since joining the RN in 1987, my first decent birds were the Walpole Park Iceland Gull, the Hardway Glaucous and the Lee slipway Med Gull (rare in those days). My list should be far higher but the RN have made me miss a lot of visiting rarities. Still have a few "easy" ones to get, 260 reached, Latest editions - 2019 Dotterel14/04/2019
