Here is the traditional state of my personal PBC (Peterborough Bird Club area) year list summary, as of the end March (2017).
This year saw my best ever start to a PBC year list, with a record number of elites seen before the start of April and a record equalling total. I saw plenty of birds I didn't record at all last year, including Scaup, Long-tailed Duck, Mealy Redpoll, Great Grey Shrike, Glaucous Gull and Kittiwake.
