Birds:
(Note: this isn’t from today but I’ve just remembered I have split Torresian Kingfisher on my list from when I saw it two years ago so I’m splitting it here. I’m not, however, splitting ‘Sandstone’ and ‘Hornbill’ Friarbird which is Helmeted Friarbird from the Top End and FNQ respectively which I think is split by one of the lists now, but if I remember correctly from a while ago is totally unjustified? I’m not quite willing to sink that low for a tick
)658) Torresian Kingfisher
659) Sandstone Shrike-thrush
660) Grey-crowned Babbler
661) Rufous Whistler
662) Crimson Finch
663) Silver-crowned Friarbird
664) Varied Lorikeet
665) Black-eared Cuckoo
666) Black-tailed Treecreeper
667) Silver-backed Butcherbird
668) Wedge-tailed Eagle
669) Northern Rosella
Mammals:
121) Dingo
122) Little Red Flying Fox
That'd probably be Phil Gregory's list?
Maybe I'll change my signature to "I know where you live".
Added one new bird, two new mammals and a couple of invertebrates to my year list over the past few days. Mammal number ten is probably going to be my highlight of the year - my best sighting of the species in the wild and definitely missing the World Cup semi-final match to see.
106. Tawny owl Strix aluco
9. Bank vole Myodes glareolus
10. Eurasian otter Lutra lutra (Nt)
60. Gatekeeper butterfly Pyronia tithonus
61. Marmalade hoverfly Episyrphus balteatus
It is indeed! I believe the rationale for his splits are generally trying to make the Australian bird list as high as possible.
I seem to recall it being accepted on one of the main international lists too, though I may be wrong there.
