Looks like this is a competition of sorts? If it is, please remove my stuff from the list WTM

Marcell, its regarded as the same as a Life List... some people are competitive with it with friendly jibing and fun while others tick slowly but surely... this list is treated exactly the same... as WTM said, its for you to decide how you want to add to your list.. with identifable photies or only the best you can take.. therefore there is no way one can say its competitive as I might have over 500 photies (i wish! tongue) but only think 80 deserve to be on my list.. smilewink

Re: Your Bird Photography Life List

I just learnt a valuable lesson - that of getting someone else to take a look through your LifeList (especially if they are in photo format) and confirm your id's. Jeff Curnick graciously spent time going through my list which is stored online and it meant that my list went from 288 to 280. Okay, so I am over hating him for it, but at least now my list is more authentic than before! I want to be accurate so there is not use in having miss identified pics in my collection. I know that I will be out and about within days to pursue this passion, so I have no doubt that I will regain the list ground in due course! It is fun! Mark
